That is all from us after a disappointing night for Ulster in the URC as they suffered their first defeat of the season against Connacht.

They were 20-3 up at one stage, but Connacht fought back to win by two points to move top of the table and continue their winning start to the season.

You can read the match report from the game here.

Next up for Ulster is a home again against Munster next Friday evening.

Thanks for joining us, good night.

Man-of-the-match Conor Oliver gives his thoughts on the game.

"We worked hard and knew we would be in for a tough game," he said.

"We stepped up in the second half and I think we always had a belief and stuck to our game plan and thankfully got the win."

It's all over at the Sportsground, and it's a home win.

Connacht go top of the URC and maintain their 100% start to the season. Tries from Cathal Forde, Tom Farrell and Diarmuid Kilgallen make the difference.

For Ulster, it was a night of frustration, blowing a big lead to go down to their first defeat of the season.

Dan McFarland will be looking forward to having his internationals back in the coming weeks.

Next up Munster at Kingspan Stadium next Friday.

If Ulster somehow hold on here it would be unbelievable. They have barely been out of their half this last 20 minutes.

A win would send them top of the URC.

Andy Warwick gives away a penalty for the visitors and Connacht are awarded a penalty five metres out.

This time refusing a simple three-pointer does not work out. Cian Prendergast is on the end of a tap-penalty move, but is well held-up over the Ulster line.

Goal-line kick-out and Dan McFarland must be pulling his hair out.

It's a new half-back pairing for the visitors, with Nathan Doak and Billy Burns on for Dave Shanahan and Jake Flannery.

For the hosts, Caolin Blade limps off to be replaced by Colm Reilly. Blade was fantastic tonight.

Ethan McIlroy with a fantastic break through the Connacht defence 40 metres out from the home try line.

However, the winger couldn't pick out a relatively easy pass to Aaron Sexton outside him, who would surely have sprinted home.

The ball flies high into touch.

Jake Flannery with the chance for an instant response with a penalty won just inside the Connacht half. However, the fly-half's kick is just left of the uprights.

I wonder if it's anything to do with the suspected cramp in his calf he was surveying before the kick?

Connacht penalty 25 metres out. Jack Carty goes for the corner again...

Jake Flannery gets the second half underway for Ulster.

After early dominance by Connacht, it's Ulster who lead at the break.

Jake Flannery with all the visitors' points. A lack of ruthlessness has cost the home side so far.

More infringements from Connacht at the breakdown giving Jake Flannery the simplest of kicks in front of the posts, and he makes no mistake.

Connacht so far not really missing Irish powerhouse centre Bundee Aki. They are punching holes in the Ulster backline, but just lacking some handling expertise.

Scrum-half Caolin Blade dummies and goes from a ruck inside the Connacht 22.

The number nine then tears off towards the halfway line before kicking to touch just outside the Ulster 22.

He really has been a live-wire tonight, the Connacht man.

Ulster close to getting the first five-pointer of the night.

Nick Timoney leading the charge into the 22, before Jake Flannery spins it wide left to Aaron Sexton, but he is bundled into touch five yards out, close.
