CHALLENGE CUP
Ultimate Rugby Oct 10

FULL TIME! It's all over here at Rodney Parade as the Newcastle Falcons walk away victorious with a scoreline of 26-30. A superb second half performance by the visitors sealed the victory as they came back from 20-13 to win the game. Two excellent tries to open the second half guaranteed this win. An unfortunate loss for the Dragons as they were leading at the half. No doubt that the poor kicking performance in the first half was a big weakness for the home side as they failed to score on several occasions. Nevertheless a thrilling game of rugby played by both teams up to the last few seconds! Thank you for keeping up to date with Ultimate Rugby. Leave your views on the game below!

The Dragons are beginning to build pressure as they earn the penalty and go for the line. The home side win their line out and are currently on the attack. The Falcons' defense is being tested.
