If the success was broad and quick to emerge, Stade Toulousain left feathers on the Exeter lawn. This Sunday, the Rouge et Noir continued their flawless performance in the Champions Cup by crushing the English club (64-21) a week after defeating Ulster. If Ugo Mola's men carried out some high-class actions, several players were affected in this meeting, starting with Antoine Dupont. The scrum-half appeared with an ice pack on his thumb, indicating he was suffering from a sprain. However, he was not too worried and believed he would be able to return quickly.
Cramont seriously injured in the ankle
On the other hand, Guillaume Cramont seems more seriously affected. Back on the scoresheet following Peato Mauvaka's concussion, the hooker had to give up his place a few minutes after coming into play, injured in the ankle. At a press conference, Ugo Mola was far from reassuring in comments reported by The Dispatch : “He complains of a blow to his ankle and fibula. It still seemed a bit annoying. Fortunately, we have Peato (Mauvaka, Editor's note) who will return this weekend, and then we will see even other young people, that's good! » The player should be fixed within the week.
