There were so many stunning elements of Antoine Dupont’s masterclass at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium that you would be hard pushed to pick just one standout moment.

If clever kicking is your thing, either of Dupont’s two outrageous 50:22s or a plethora of superb box-kicks off both feet would be in the running. If you’re more of a breakdown aficionado, four turnovers would certainly float your boat, or if you like a good old-fashioned charge down, the gifted Toulouse scrum-half came up with two important interventions. Then there were the six defenders beaten, the most out of any of the 46 players on show.
