Sexton kicks 16 points as Racing race to top of Pool 5

Jonathan Sexton kicked 16 points as Racing Metro defeated Benetton Treviso 26-10 at Stadio Comunale di Mongio.

The Ireland fly-half was on target four times from the penalty tee and converted tries from centre Henry Chavancy and flanker Wenceslas Lauret as Racing maintained their perfect start to the tournament.

Ludovico Nitoglia scored Treviso’s only try, with full-back Jayden Hayward converting the 62nd-minute score to add to a successful penalty midway through the first half.
