Tiernan O’Halloran: ‘We can beat Toulouse again’

Connacht full-back Tiernan O’Halloran believes their shock Heineken Cup win in Toulouse three seasons ago will instil confidence as they head back to Stade Ernest Wallon this weekend.

Connacht have their fate in their hands as they take on the four-time champions in Sunday’s crunch Champions Cup showdown, bidding to repeat their 16-14 win from December 2013.

It was one of the biggest upsets ever in the history of Europe’s premier competition and a foretaste of just what Connacht could achieve under Pat Lam.
