Urdapilleta Kicks Castres to Victory over Munster

Benjamín Urdapilleta kicked eight points for Castres who downed Munster 13-12 today in France. The match was a round four fixture in the European Champions Cup. 

Urdapilleta played the match in his usual position of fly half. He converted his team’s only try and also landed three penalties. Canadian Taylor Paris joined Urdapilleta in the starting line-up.

Last capped by Argentina in 2013, Urdapilleta is one of Argentina’s best fly halves. He was man of the match in the 2018 Top 14 final and is regarded as one of the best fly halves in France. A place in RWC 2019 is very plausible for the 32-year-old from Buenos Aires.
