Ulster storm back to overpower Kings

Guinness PRO14: Southern Kings 36 - Ulster 43: Ulster staged a superb second-half fightback to record a 43-36 Guinness PRO14 win over Southern Kings after trailing 22-10 at the break in Port Elizabeth.

Ulster storm back to overpower Kings

The victory moves Ulster up to second place in Conference B, while the Kings remain rooted to the foot of the standings after an eighth successive defeat and they are still searching for a first win of the season. That dismal record looked set to come to an end, though, as the South African side came flying out of the blocks. The hosts led 12-0 just seven minutes in after Berton Klaasen and Yaw Penxe crossed for tries and Oliver Zono added a conversion.

Sean Reidy went over to get Ulster on the board and after Zono kicked a penalty, John Andrew scored Ulster’s second try of the afternoon.
