Toulouse dominated Sale 28-0, sending a stark message to any potential contenders as Thomas Ramos cemented his status as the deadliest goal-kicker in rugby history. The French outfit ran rampant at the Stade Vélodrome, with Ramos converting all 11 of his kicks - including an impressive one from behind - to add to their already commanding lead.
The Sale youngsters, who were largely without key players due to injury and illness, showed admirable spirit in the early stages but were eventually overwhelmed. Despite a brief respite after two yellow cards against them, they continued to concede points, with Toulouse scoring 11 tries between the two halves of the match.
Ramos's kicking perfection was a sight to behold, as he coolly slotted over point after point from distance. The fly-half's accuracy was unmatched, and his displays are a testament to his skill and expertise.
Toulouse's win propelled them into second place in Pool 1, with Sale relegated to fifth. However, it was far from an embarrassing defeat for the young Manchester-based side, who showed a commendable tenacity despite being outgunned by their opponents.
In contrast, Toulouse's victory marked a turning point in their campaign, as they now look set to host Glasgow in the last 16 of the competition. With Ramos at the helm, the French outfit will be confident in their ability to dispatch even the toughest opponents.
The Sale defeat was also notable for the manner of its completion - a try from Tom Curtis gave his team some brief solace before Toulouse sealed the win with ease. Despite the dismal outcome, the young Sale players should take heart in knowing that they competed admirably against one of the competition's top teams.
As the rugby season enters its climax, Toulouse will be looking to build on this impressive victory and make a deep run in the competition. With Ramos leading the charge, there is reason to believe that the French outfit could go all the way.

! Toulouse might've run a bit wild but it's clear they're gonna be tough opponents for anyone in the last 16 
. Thomas Ramos is like a magician or something, I mean, 11/11 from the kick-off? That's insane 
! And yea, gotta give props to Tom Curtis for getting that last try in before Toulouse sealed it... can't ask for more than that 
. The French team's got some serious momentum now, & if they keep this form up, watch out for them in the finals 
!
toulouse dominated sale 28-0 and it was like watchin a masterclass 
and i'm low-key excited for toulouse's next match against glasgow, with ramos leadin the charge 
I'm loving Thomas Ramos's form right now!! 
. I think we're seeing some serious growth from Toulouse this season, and if they keep up the good work, I wouldn't put it past 'em to make it all the way to the top 
? How did they even come up with that statistic? Was it just a bunch of journalists getting together and shouting out numbers until someone agreed on them? I need to see some concrete evidence before I start buying into that claim... where's the data behind this stat? 
and Thomas Ramos is straight fire 
from being a bunch of scrappy youngsters to holding their own against one of the top teams... props to those youngbloods for giving it their all 
Their win over Sale marked a turning point in their campaign and with Ramos at the helm, they're almost unbeatable 
with ramos's kicking game on point, didnt think he had it in him tho 
gotta give credit to toulouse for putting out a dominant performance. seems like ramos is the real deal now 
It's clear that Sale showed they have what it takes to compete with top teams, even if they didn't quite match Toulouse's level of skill today. The youngsters might be disappointed with the outcome, but they should take pride in how they fought back after getting two yellow cards.
They're 28-0 against Sale, which is pretty ridiculous, but it's also a bit suspicious that they didn't even really face any major challenges from those young Sale guys. Like, didn't they show up empty-handed or something? 
But what if Toulouse just got lucky? What if Sale was actually more competitive than we thought? 
️ sale showed some heart but you could tell they were outgunned from the start 
toulouse's win sets them up nicely for the next round but can they keep it up against a tough opponent like glasgow? 
. But you've got to hand it to them for showing spirit and not giving up, even when things were looking bleak 
Toulouse's dominance was a sight to behold, and their win puts them in a great position to make a deep run in the competition 
And with Ramos leadin' the charge, there's no doubt they'll give it their all 
toulouse's squad looks so deep and well-oiled, they must be really hungry for that last 16 spot 
but toulouse just dominated the game 
They totally deserve to be in second place now, and hosting Glasgow in the last 16 is gonna be super intense
