Beaten to the wire last weekend in Bristol, Lyon snatched its first victory of the season in the Champions Cup, against the South African franchise of the Pretoria Bulls (29-28), Saturday at the Gerland stadium, during the second day of the competition.
Hooker Yanis Charcosset scored the fourth try for the locals (24-21, 62nd), to allow his team to lead the score for the first time in the match, but also to win the offensive bonus point. A final try from center Thibaut Regard (29-28, 72nd) sealed the score.
