Tom Lockett's late try sealed a dramatic Investec Champions Cup bonus-point win for Northampton over Toulon.

Two yellow cards for the French side saw them go down to 13 players with less than five minutes left and holding a one-point lead.

And after 12 attacking phases, Lockett went over to the delight of the Franklins Gardens crowd.

Victory made it two from two for Saints in Pool 3 after they overcame Glasgow Warriors last Friday.
