Connacht brought an end to their recent struggles with a much-needed bonus-point victory in Italy, producing a confident display that will ease the pressure after a difficult run of results.
The Irish province started with intent and were rewarded for their attacking ambition, crossing for early tries to take control of the contest. Sharp execution and improved discipline allowed them to build a healthy lead, while their defence stood firm against periods of sustained pressure from the hosts.
A fourth try secured the all-important bonus point and underlined Connacht’s dominance, giving the travelling supporters plenty to cheer. Although the Italian side showed resilience and fought back with scores of their own, Connacht remained composed and managed the closing stages well to seal the win.
The result not only delivers valuable points in the standings but also provides a timely confidence boost as Connacht look to build momentum heading into the next phase of the season.
