Former Wales star sets up awesome 75-metre try in Japanese Top League

BY Shaywaterworth  ·  Saturday May 15, 2021

Ex-Wales international Hadleigh Parkes set up Panasonic Wild Knights winger Kenki Fukuoka with a lovely miss pass in the opening minute of Saturday’s Top League semi-final against Toyota Verblitz.

The ball-carrying centre took possession just five metres from his own try line and fizzed a wonderful flat pass to Fukuoka on the wing.

The speedster beat his opposite number on the outside and then executed a timely two-one with his full back, before beating Springboks legend Willie le Roux to finish off a wonderful counter attack try in the corner.

This score helped the Wild Knights to a 21-48 win to seal their spot in the Top League final next weekend.
