Ulster Rugby winger Jacob Stockdale crossed for his fifth and sxith try of the Heineken Champions Cup against Racing on Saturday.
Stockdale has been exceptional for the northern province and has scored six tries in seven games this season as he continues to show that he’s one of the best finishers in world rugby.
Jacob Stockdale is the only player to have scored in all five rounds of the Heineken Champions Cup so far 🙌
He bagged his 5th try of the pool stages early on against Racing 92…

Ulster took an early lead through winger Robert Baloucoune who crossed after just seven minutes before Stockdale extended the hosts lead after 14 minutes.
Racing did hit back through Virimi Vakatawa and then Ireland international Simon Zebo with Ulster taking a slender 16-10 lead into half-time.
Stockdale then bagged his second try of the game after the restart with a sublime chip and chase to score.
Jacob Stockdale HAD NO RIGHT to score from there! 😮
Shrugs the defender off…
Chips a beauty through…
Beats 3 defenders to the ball…On a different level 🙌
His 2nd of the game, his 6th in the tournament which makes him the top scorer. pic.twitter.com/AUjjkdNiir
