Fijian Peniasi Dakuwaqa has set social media on fire, after scoring what has been called the greatest try ever. 

Dakuwaqa, a winger for Top 14 team Stade Français Paris, looked like he was about to make a big mistake in the team's game against Racing 92, when he picked up the loose ball and ran it back inside his own try line. 

But fear quickly turned to ecstasy for Paris fans, as Dakuwaqa ran the entire length of the field, including a chip-and-chase and hurdling over an injured player and trainer, to score five points for his team.

This was one of two tries Dakuwaqa scored for his side, as Stade Français Paris went on to win the game 27-11. 

The team has now won their last four games, as they maintain their slim lead on Toulouse for the top of the Top 14 standings.
