USA Perpignan scored possibly the try of the weekend on Saturday in a Challenge Cup game against the Dragons in France.
The try, finished off by Baptiste Plana, started deep inside their own half in the final quarter of the game at Stade Aimé Giral when winger Jean-Bernard Pujol showed brilliant footballing skills to win possession for Perpignan.

The French side then kicked the ball through the Dragons defence and then a series of wonderful offloads, most notably from scrum half Tom Ecochard with a lovely blind pop pass, Plana ran over the line to score a beautiful counter attack try.
This try helped Perpignan to a 22 – 16 win and full match highlights are available below:
