Montpellier put themselves back in contention for the Top 14 play-offs with a 38-6 victory over Stade Francais on Friday night.
Winger Martin Bustos Moyano was the star of the show with a 26-point haul that propelled the hosts to their third successive league victory.
Centre Paul Bosch and winger Timoci Nagusa both touched down to help ensure a valuable bonus point with replacement Benoit Paillaugue rounding out the scoring with a last-minute conversion.
Stade Francais, who returned to domestic matters having booked a place in this season's Amlin Challenge Cup quarter-finals, took the lead in the first half through the boot of scrum-half Julien Dupuy.
However, the visitors had little answer to Montpellier's second-half onslaught with a second penalty all they could muster after the interval.
