Twitter explodes with joy after Connacht’s miraculous comeback

What a comeback...

SportsJOE

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.

Twitter was full of praise for the epic display from Pat Lam’s side.
