Late penalty gives RAF men's rugby union team another loss in foggy conditions

Watch: RAF beaten by Cardiff Met University in Wales fog

The RAF men's rugby union team have fallen to another defeat at the hands of Cardiff Met University in Wales.

After losing to Rams and the USA Military before Christmas, a third loss was handed to Tom Gardner's team by a late Cardiff penalty in a 29-28 loss.

However, there were some positives for the Air Force to take after leading half-time and they were in scoring mood thanks to a strong attack and captain Mark Williams' sharp shooting with the boot.

Both sets of players had to battle the conditions as well as their opponents as a blanket of fog threatened to wreak havoc at the Cyncoed Campus in Cardiff.

The RAF will look to get their season back on track in their upcoming fixture against Oxford Harlequins and the British Police.
