French Top 14

Montpellier pull clear of Racing

Montpellier won 11-10 on home soil, Jan Serfontein's try adding to a pair of Ruan Pienaar penalties, with Bordeaux left to count the cost of failing to convert either of Ed Fidow's scores.

Charlie Slade impressed for Pau, booting 11 points, as they kept their noses ahead of Racing throughout.

Watisoni Votu scored a second-half double to help Pau move level on points with Toulon and Toulouse in the final play-off spots, ahead of those sides' assignments on Sunday.
