Connacht moves to the top of Guinness PRO12 table

In-form Connacht moved to the top of the Guinness PRO12 table with a three-try 33-19 victory over Benetton Treviso at the Sportsground.

Benefiting from the Scarlets’ loss at Leinster, Pat Lam’s men picked up their fifth win on the bounce – the province’s best run of league results since 2002 - before switching their focus to next week’s novel Challenge Cup trip to Siberia to play Enisei-STM.
