Connacht awarded a penalty and Parks turfs to touch

Connacht concede possession to a Dragons lineout but Kearney makes a brilliant steal and the forwards build a tight maul to make some headway

Parks makes no mistake and strikes it well to split the sticks and get some points on the board 30 minutes in

Marmion feeds the scrum and the pack drive forward to get the penalty. Clarke points directly to the posts for Parks to kick and get some points on the board before half time

A promising position now for Connacht as they are awarded a scrum just inside the Dragons 22.

Matt Healy does brilliantly in defense to bundle Amos into touch

Deep in the Dragons 22 and looking for options but Marmion's pass is intercepted by the visitors who sprint up the wing, making a nice 40 metres

Another knock on and Marmion feeds into the scrum and Connacht drive forward 10m and eventually get awarded a penalty. Parks kicks to touch. Lineout won by Clarke just outside the 22. Connacht could make something out of this

Dragons now with the feed to the scrum inches inside their own half. Faletau with a lovely pick and run

Dragons penalised at ruck time for not releasing the ball in the tackle and Dan Parks tries to drill the ball into touch, however these blistery conditions kept the ball in play and Dragons a chance to counter attack
