Ross Byrne gets the second half underway

The sides are out for the second half

Not sure Leinster can come back from this. Bench is not very strong to turn things around.

Connacht take a 19-7 lead over Leinster into halftime. Connacht opened the scoring with an early try, but Leinster hit back with their first score shortly after to lead 7-5. It was all Connacht thereafter as the visitors crossed for a further two tries to take a deserved 12 point advantage into the break.
