RUGBY: Connacht 20-22 Ulster (BKT URC Commentary and Reaction)

Jack Carty missed an injury-time conversion to snatch an unlikely draw for Connacht in the BKT United Rugby Championship on Friday (23rd December).

Trailing by 22-8 with three minutes remaining, tries for Jarrad Butler and Adam Byrne nearly rescued a result on a disappointing outing for the hosts.

Caolin Blade got Connacht's first try on the hour but they left themselves with a mountain to climb. And despite the losing bonus point, they remain in 11th place with four wins from 10 matches, and four points behind a top-8 spot.
