Connacht progress as Exiles perish

London Irish’s exploits in Europe ended with a thump as Narbonne took them apart 29-10 at Parc des Sports et de l’Amitie tonight.

Narbonne took an early 12-0 lead in the tie with fly-half Cedric Rosalen slotting three penalty goals and a dropped goal to wipe out the Exiles’ seven-point advantage from their 20-13 first-leg victory.
