| Clermont Auvergne made an immediate statement of intent in the Champions Cup as they thrashed Exeter 35-8 at Sandy Park. Exeter, who beat Clermont comfortably on home soil last season before being crushed in the return fixture, were blown away by first-half tries from flanker Julien Bardy, wing Noa Nakaitaci and centre Wesley Fofana during a devastating 15-minute spell.And Exeter had no answer as full-back Nick Abendanon claimed a bonus-point touchdown just three minutes into the second period, before Fofana added another try, while scrum-half Morgan Parra kicked four conversions and substitute Pato Fernandez one. Gareth Steenson kicked an early penalty for Exeter, and Sam Hill added a late try, yet even when they had spells of dominating possession, the home side could find no way through a superbly-organised Clermont defence until injury time.Their victory might not have matched Saracens defeat of Toulon in France on Saturday as the high point of this seasons opening European weekend, but Clermont are majestically off and running in pursuit of a trophy they have never won. Noa Nakaitaci crosses down the left touchline A minutes silence was observed before kick-off in memory of Munster head coach Anthony Foley, who died overnight in Paris, as players and supporters at Sandy Park paid tribute to the 42-year-old.Exeter, with a gusting wind behind them, took charge of early territory and Steenson kicked them into a seventh-minute lead after Clermont lock Sebastien Vahaamahina was guilty of a high tackle.Clermont, having opted to play against the wind in the first-half, restricted Exeter to that solitary Steenson strike following an opening quarter high on endeavour, and they almost pounced when Parra broke clear, but England wing David Strettle could not gather his pass.The visitors, though, did not have to wait much longer for an opening try, which had its origins in some strong work by Fofana before Nakaitaci delivered an exquisite inside pass and Bardy finished off impressively.Parra made light of the testing conditions by effortlessly landing the touchline conversion attempt, and Clermont were off and running, with a second try following just four minutes later after Parras high kick was gathered and slickly moved, with Naikataci crossing wide out. Nick Abendanon scored soon after the break to halt any chance of a Chiefs comeback Another Parra conversion made it 14-3, and Exeters evening showed no immediate sign of improving as hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie, a member of Eddie Jones England elite player squad, was helped off injured before scrum-half Dave Lewis saw a try rightly disallowed for offside.Exeter needed to strike before the break, yet Clermont scored again as they cut the Chiefs defence to shreds when fly-half Camille Lopez glided effortlessly past Steenson and handed Fofana a simple finish from an inside pass.Parras conversion took Clermont 18 points clear, giving Exeter a second-half mountain to climb.

But the Chiefs were powerless to keep Clermont at bay, and a fourth try arrived with indecent haste when Strettle and number eight Fritz Lee linked impressively, creating sufficient space for a trademark Abendanon finish.Exeter plugged away in pursuit of a consolation score, but Clermont were having none of it, even when they temporarily went down to 14 men after lock Flip van der Merwe was sin-binned for a technical offence, and Fofanas second try underlined a considerable gap in class before Hill touched down in the closing seconds.You can watch Liverpool v Man Utd, plus Englands tour of Bangladesh and the US Grand Prix on Sky Sports.
