A brilliant comeback.
Connacht were trailing 21-11 at half-time of their opening Champions Cup game of the season, yet somehow managed to overturn that deficit against Toulouse, four-time European champions.
No-one told Bundee Aki you’re not meant to win games from that position.

The centre scored the winning try in the 23-21 win, putting in an inspirational performance against the French side and getting Connacht’s European campaign underway in perfect style in Galway.
What a game. What a win! What a man @bundeeaki12!!! https://t.co/XMiVkTdFpp

Twitter was full of praise for the epic display from Pat Lam’s side.
Great win for @connachtrugby. That group is wide open now.

As a heterosexual man, I have no problem with admitting that I'm becoming physically attracted to Bundee Aki #CONvTOU #ERChampionsCup
