Gloucester Rugby have beaten Connacht by a score of 23-19 at Kingsholm this afternoon.

Gloucester fly-half Tim Taylor kicked an early penalty and converted his own try to put the home side in front at the beginning of the first half.

However, after first adding the extras to Tiernan O'Halloran's try, opposite number Niall O'Connor kicked a couple of penalties to put Connacht ahead at the break.

O'Connor and Gloucester substitute Freddie Burns traded a couple of second-half penalties each, before the latter converted a late Jonny May try to seal the game.
