O'Gara's La Rochelle suffer surprise second successive defeat

Action from today's Top 14 clash between Castres Olympique and La Rochelle at The Stade Pierre-Fabre in Castres.

The Top 14's two-week break cannot come soon enough for Ronan O Gara's La Rochelle, after they slipped to their second defeat in as many matches despite outscoring their opponents two tries to one.

A week after losing their unbeaten home record at the hands of Toulouse, a fatigued Rochelais were on the wrong end of a 22-15 defensive dogfight at Castres' Stade Pierre Fabre to lose two in a row for the first time this season.
