Monye still aiming for final eight berth

Quins led 14-0 at the interval but were pegged back by the French giants in the second half following tries by Yves Donguy and Shaun Sowerby.

Moyne was named man-of-the-match after his two-try display but it was not enough to prevent defeat at the Twickenham Stoop.

The result leaves the English side bottom of Pool Five and facing a mountain to climb in order to reach the latter stages.

But Monye said: "We were in a great position and we worked really hard but we left the door ajar.

"Fair play to Toulouse because they are a world class side but we conceded two soft tries in ten minutes and that put our backs against the wall.

"It's very difficult for us now. Not many teams qualify after losing the first two matches. But we will keep battling. We love playing in the competition and we're grateful to be in.

"Regardless of whether we can still qualify, we will give our all."
