Toulouse beat Grenoble to go top, Toulon stun Stade with late rally

Sofiane Guitoune claimed a double as Toulouse beat Grenoble 29-16 to take over as Top 14 leaders, while Toulon snatched victory over Stade Francais in an incredible finish on Sunday.
Clermont Auvergne's defeat at Castres on Saturday gave Toulouse the chance to replace them at the summit and the European Rugby Champions Cup quarter-finalists grasped their opportunity at Stade Ernest-Wallon.
Matthieu Ugalde twice put Grenoble in front from the tee, but Toulouse led 12-6 at the break after a converted Mathis Lebel's score added to Guitoune's opening try.
Ugalde was on target with a third penalty early in the second half before the home side clicked into gear, Guitoune and Clement Castets going over in a decisive six-minute spell.
Zack Holmes converted both scores and was also on target with a penalty, with Mike Tadjer scoring struggling Grenoble's only try right at the end as Toulouse secured a bonus-point win to go two clear at the top.
Toulon looked to be heading for a 10th defeat of a poor Top 14 season before producing a stunning late rally to defeat Stade 33-30 in a thriller.
The three-time European champions came roaring back in the closing stages, Louis Carbonel touching down three minutes from time and Filipo Nakosi scoring his second of a pulsating match at Stade Mayol to leave Heyneke Meyer's men shell-shocked.
Nicolas Sanchez scored 15 points and there was a try in each half for Hendre Stassen, but Stade slumped to a loss which leaves them in sixth spot.

My partner and I had always been cautious investors, but like many others, we fell victim to an investment scheme that promised high returns in the cryptocurrency space. The company had a sleek website, a compelling pitch, and even endorsements from supposed financial experts. It all looked legitimate—until it wasn’t. One morning, as I checked our crypto wallet, my stomach dropped. The 350 ETH we had transferred was gone. The platform was suddenly inaccessible, support emails bounced back, and the so-called “investment managers” had disappeared. Panic set in. My partner, Lisa, tried to remain calm, but I could see the worry in her eyes. This was our hard-earned savings, and we had been scammed. Determined not to give up, we scoured the internet for help. That’s when we came across Galaxy Ethical Tech—a company specializing in ethical blockchain investigations and asset recovery. Their reputation was impeccable, and they had successfully helped many people retrieve lost funds from fraudulent crypto schemes. With nothing to lose, we reached out. Galaxy Ethical Tech assigned us a dedicated blockchain forensics expert, Daniel, who listened patiently to our story. He assured us that their technology could trace our stolen Ethereum across multiple wallets, even if the scammers had tried to obscure the transactions. Using advanced blockchain analytics and AI-driven tracing, Daniel and his team mapped out the movement of our ETH. The scammers had funneled the funds through multiple wallets and mixing services, but Galaxy Ethical Tech’s algorithms identified patterns in the transactions. Within 72 hours, they pinpointed where the stolen Ethereum had been consolidated. The next step was enforcement. Galaxy Ethical Tech collaborated with cybercrime authorities and blockchain security networks to freeze the identified wallets. They also leveraged their ethical hacking team to monitor real-time movements and prevent further laundering of the funds.Within two weeks, we received an email that made our hearts race. A significant portion of our 350 ETH had been recovered! Galaxy Ethical Tech coordinated with an exchange compliance team to ensure the funds were returned to our wallet. The relief was overwhelming. We had gone from despair to gratitude, all thanks to the ethical, transparent, and highly skilled approach of Galaxy Ethical Tech. Their AI-powered forensics, legal partnerships, and ethical hacking had saved us from a devastating loss.Today, Lisa and I are more cautious than ever in the crypto space, and we actively educate others on avoiding scams. But if there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s this: when technology is used ethically, it can do wonders—even reclaim what was thought to be lost forever.Galaxy Ethical Tech didn’t just recover our Ethereum. They restored our faith in the power of ethical innovation.contact them via Email: galaxyethicaltech@mail.comWhatsapp: +15072712442Telegram: Galaxy_ethical_tech
