Scenes!
Connacht will meet Leinster in the Guinness PRO12 final next Saturday after stunning champions Glasgow for the second time in 14 days.
Pat Lam’s men will now fight for their first ever title at Murrayfield and we wouldn’t be surprised if the last person out was asked to switch out the lights.
.@connachtrugby are off to Edinburgh and the whole bloody province is coming with them #PRO12finall https://t.co/JsRLa2gC5O

Connacht were reduced to 14 men for the final eight minutes after Rodney Ah You was sin-binned for a high hit of Stuart Hogg. They would have been expected to fall back to their 22 but that isn’t this Connacht team.
They went toe-to-toe and drove every ounce of themselves into Warriors, winning hits and forcing mistakes.
And the Connacht bench, they enjoyed and endured every tense as hell moment.
At the final whistle… sheer bloody joy.
Keep an eye out for Finlay Bealham [No.3] and him nearly getting snotted.
Bench explodes at the final whistle. Mind yer head Finlay #Scenes #Connacht pic.twitter.com/m4UtM4FxUC
