Edinburgh survive late Connacht fight back

Connacht 25 Edinburgh 26

Intense and immense at times, Edinburgh deserved their triumph and the reversal of fortunes from the earlier Celtic League clash, but it was agonisingly close in the dying moments of the match.

Ultimately, Connacht paid the price for their inability to keep minds concentrated on the task in hand. They conceded two early tries, came back to make a match of it, fell victim once again to some very clever Edinburgh play and then responded again at the death to leave the crowd and their opponents gasping for air.
