Scrum-half Nolan Le Garrec put on an ‘international-standard’ performance as Racing 92 won a rain-sodden arm-wrestle of a derby against Stade Francais at Stade Jean Bouin, according to head coach Stuart Lancaster.

The 21-year-old, “had one of the best matches I have seen him play,” the former Leinster coach said after his side’s 13-9 win, their eighth in a row on their Parisian rivals’ home turf.
