Gutsy Stormers snatch Dublin draw

The DHL Stormers scored a late try to snatch a draw against a resurgent Leinster side in a top-of-the-table Vodacom United Rugby Championship clash in Dublin on Friday.

Having led by 17 points after a dominant start to the first half, the Stormers threatened to let it slip at a hostile RDS Arena as unbeaten Leinster scored four successive tries to take the lead. However, Manie Libbok set up fullback Clayton Blommetjies for the decisive try that saw the defending champions come away with a credible draw and bring Leinster’s 15-game winning run to an end.

Gutsy? Try wasteful. They threw away a 17 point lead.
