Last gasp.
Ulster will meet Leinster in this year’s Guinness PRO14 final thanks to the boot of Ireland international Ian Madigan.
The summer signing was sprung from the bench in the final ten minutes with Ulster trailing by 7 points but enjoying huge amounts of pressure and playing with some real ambition.

Madigan’s first kick came following John Andrew’s try in the 74th minute, with the former Bristol Bears man nailing a conversion from the touchline, showing incredible resolve.
He then stepped up with the clock in red to nail a penalty and put Ulster into the final. Have a watch below. Balls of steel.
