Is this the best rugby try ever? Fiji star Peniasi Dakuwaqa wows fans as he runs the full length of the pitch to score as his ‘insane’ feat is dubbed the ‘try of the decade’

Fijian rugby star Peniasi Dakuwaqa has gone viral on social media after scoring what has been dubbed as the greatest individual try of all-time.

Dakuwaqa, 26, plays on the wing for French side Stade Francais Paris in the Top 14.

And, during their clash against Racing 92 on Saturday, Dakuwaqa completed an act of genius.

As Racing 92 kicked deep into Stade Francais’ 22, the 26-year-old collected the bouncing ball and ran it back inside his own try line, narrowly avoiding a tackle.

He then got up to breakneck speed and executed a composed chip-and-chase to break the initial line of defence.

The move started when the 26-year-old collected the ball deep inside Stade Francais’ 22

To add further drama, Dakuwaqa even hurdled over an injured player and trainer, before he collected the ball perfectly and continued his mammoth full-pitch sprint.

He then held off one tackle before leaving another opponent in his wake as he burst away to complete his near improbable 100m-plus feat.

And fans were quick to laud Dakuwaqa after his stunning try as one said: ‘Try of the year!! And next year!’

Another added: ‘That’s why he’s called The Flash,’ before another astonished supporter said: ‘Wow, insane.’

A further fan simply said: ‘Incroyable,’ meaning incredible in French, before another quipped: ‘Try of the decade’. 

One even commented on a particular part of the try as they said: ‘Lucky that chip didn’t hit the medic or the injured player!’

Several rugby fans were quick to hail Dakuwaqa as Stade Francais won the crunch game 27-11

Dakuwaqa’s moment of brilliance came at a crucial time in the game, with Stade Francais leading 17-11 heading into the final 15 minutes before his try.

It also came after he had opened the scoring in the first half with another try as his side went onto win the game 27-11.

The victory ensured Stade Francais made it four wins in a row to maintain their four-point lead over Toulouse at the summit of the Top 14 standings.
