Henry Arundell produced arguably one of the greatest tries in Challenge Cup history as London Irish fell to an agonising one-point defeat against Toulon.
OH MYYYYY 🤩@henry_arundell take a bow 👏👏👏

Elsewhere, Pep Guardiola decided to have a pop at Liverpool and the media following Man City's 5-0 rout of Newcastle.
Guardiola speaking to @CarrieBrownTV: "Everyone in this country supports Liverpool, the media and everyone. Of course, because Liverpool has an incredible history in European competition, not in the Premier League - won one in 30 years..." pic.twitter.com/KY5plfXj5x

What a crazy end to that game as Dirk van Duijvenbode misses more match darts and Michael van Gerwen sneaks through to the semi-finals.
He recovered from 3-0 down but Van Duijvenbode blew the chance to win.

Both teams, aware of the situation, stopped playing competitively in the final ten minutes of the game, as the visitors simply passed the ball at the back while Frankfurt refused to pile on the pressure.
The scenes brought back memories of the 1982 World Cup and the 'Disgrace of Gijon' when similar events took place during a match between Germany and Austria.
Ein schwarzer Tag fĂĽr den deutschen FuĂźball!

Maximale Schiebung im Auf- & Abstiegskampf. 12 Min lang wird das Spielen komplett eingestellt, die SVE hat 100% Ballbesitz, der FSV bewegt sich nicht und die Fans klatschen..
Gijon 2.0, ich hoffe die SVE steigt chancenlos wieder ab. pic.twitter.com/3k3b5QiH1F
