Rory Best ‘massively disappointed’ after comeback in Clermont falls short

"The damage was done in the first half."

Ulster captain Rory Best was disappointed to leave the Stade Marcel Michelin empty-handed as their second-half fightback fell short at Clermont Auvergne.

The Top 14 front-runners moved six points clear at the top of Champions Cup pool five after a first-half double from Nick Abendanon and Isaiah Toeava's first-minute score gave Clermont a 21-0 lead at half-time.
