Bath Rugby 25 Wasps 23: How Twitter Reacted

Bath Rugby got back to winning ways on Sunday, as they defeated Wasps in the dying moments at the Ricoh Arena to produce a valuable European Champions Cup win.

A try at the latter stages from wing Anthony Watson was then coolly converted by a nerveless George Ford to send Bath supporters into scenes of adulation.

The win serves as a nice pick-me-up for Bath, who have been experiencing an indifferent run of form of late. Recent losses against Leicester Tigers and Northampton Saints meant additional pressure was potentially heaped upon the European clash.

Following the full-time whistle many fans took to social media to express their feelings, ranging from pride, joy and relief. Total Sport took a look at some of the best reactions via the social media platform Twitter.
