Dragons head coach Filo Tiatia was frustrated that his side did not make more of their opportunities in an 18-12 defeat by Montpellier in the Challenge Cup semi-finals.

Montpellier will face Ulster in the final in three weeks’ time, but the Top 14 title challengers were subjected to a tense finish at Septeo Stadium after Aneurin Owen scored the second of his two tries in the 73rd minute.
