Thomas Ramos kicked a last-gasp penalty to hand Toulouse victory over their Top 14 rivals Toulon in the Investec Champions Cup quarter-finals.

Ramos missed a penalty with three minutes remaining before regaining his composure to land the decisive blow for the defending champions with the final act.

Toulouse trailed 12-6 at the interval as Melvyn Jaminet kicked four penalties, while Ramos also registered a couple of shots at goal.

The champions recovered after the interval, though, and Englishman Jack Willis scored their opening try to reduce the deficit to a single point.

Pita Ahki crossed for their second eight minutes later to hand the visitors the advantage but Jaminet’s trusted boot kept Toulon within striking distance.

The full-back dragged his side level from the tee but it was opposite number Ramos who maintained Toulouse’s title defence.

Toulouse will face another French side in the semi-finals in a mouth-watering tie at Bordeaux-Begles next month.
