Danny Care
Breakthrough! Brilliant from Dino Lamb as he batters his way through a tackle and is finally dragged down inches from the line. Danny Care is there and quick as a flash picks it up and goes over.
Racing 92 0-0 Harlequins
Full marks to Quins for their opening ambition but they could do with some points to show for it. Again the kick somes to nothing and Racing win a penalty from the follow-up scrum.
Racing 92 0-0 Harlequins
This is superb from Quins - Will Joseph dances away from a tackle to cut Racing open, he's hauled down before the ball is kicked wide and Andre Esterhuizen drops it! That was a try if he'd gathered it.
There was an advantage though. Marcus Smith again chooses to kick for the corner and not the posts.
Racing 92 0-0 Harlequins
Harlequins put the ball through the phases, probing the Racing Line but that's a big turnover! No surprise to see Siya Kolisi emerge from the melee with the ball.
Racing 92 0-0 Harlequins
Brilliant from Marcus Smith to dink the kick over the Racing Line and some top class jackaling gives Quins the penalty. Smith puts it into the corner.
Racing 92 0-0 Harlequins
Terrific noise in Paris to wrap up this opening weekend. The game continues to play at rapid pace with Tyrone Green and Will Joseph breaking the lines.
Racing 92 0-0 Harlequins
Harlequins move the ball wide left and there's half a chance in the corner but Racing rally well and shut them down before turning the ball over. That was some opening 90 seconds!

Siya Kolisi looks pumped and we are under way in Paris.
Racing 92 v Harlequins (17:30 GMT)
With wins for Northampton, Bristol, Bath, Exeter, Sale, Leicester it's been a rampaging opening weekend of Champions Cup rugby for the English sides.
After a hat-trick of French wins could an English side get back on top this season? Or will it be French glory once more at Tottenham next May?
Racing 92 v Harlequins (17:30 GMT)
Leinster may have snared the double World Cup-winning coach Jacques Nienaber, but Racing got the double World Cup-winning captain.
Flanker Siya Kolisi joined the French club after becoming the first player since Richie McCaw to lift back-to-back Webb Ellis Cups.
The Springbok skipper will look to use his leadership qualities to guide Racing to a first European title after two final losses in 2018 and 2020.
Racing 92 v Harlequins (17:30 GMT)
England wing Henry Arundell will start at full-back for Racing 92.

Harlequins make only one change for the trip to Paris after thrashing Sale Sharks last week.
Prop Will Collier is ruled out through injury and is replaced by Dillon Lewis.
South Africa's double World Cup-winning captain Siya Kolisi, who like Arundell joined the French club after the World Cup in France, starts at flanker.
Arundell, whose debut hat-trick came almost four weeks ago, has scored four tries in his first three games for his new club, playing at both wing and full-back.
Racing 92 v Harlequins (17:30 GMT)
Does anyone fancy some tries?
Harlequins and Racing 92 love to throw the ball around and play free-flowing rugby.
On the artificial pitch, under the lights, Paris La Defense Arena usually is the home of a cracker.
