Brave Connacht fall short in dying moments

AN EXCELLENT HAT-TRICK from Fionn Carr wasn’t enough to save Connacht from an unlucky defeat away to the Scarlets in a gripping Magners League encounter in Wales. The Westerners took an early lead from the boot of Ian Keatley and played with commendable heart but were beaten 35-33 at the death after a try by Scottish international Sean Lamont.
