'ReesLightening' Stars in Gloucester's win over Montpellier
- 3021
Gloucester's sensational teenaged winger Louis Rees-Zammit was in fine form once again as Gloucester claimed 29-6 win over Montpellier on Saturday.
The win keeps Gloucester's hopes of making the quarter-finals of the Champions Cup alive while Montpellier will shift their focus to Top 14 for the remainder of the season.
Gloucester's winger has been the talk of the season and has even been tipped for a call up to the Wales Six Nations squad having snubbed Eddie Jones' attempts to lure him to England.
His performance on Saturday shows exactly why he has been so highly rated.

Rees-Zammitt set up the first Gloucester try as he broke through the Montpellier defence and produced this scrumptious offload for Willie Heinze to score.
How about that!!😱

The winger was excellent throughout and was rewarded with a try thanks to this lovely flick on by fulllback Jason Woodward, who also did his hopes of a test call up no harm with Eddie Jones in attendance at Kingsholm.
Sets up the first @gloucesterrugby try, scores the second!

We'll say it again, Louis Rees-Zammit is a GAMECHANGER 🔥
A perfect finish in the corner, and how about that tap pass from Jason Woodward?!#HeinekenChampionsCup pic.twitter.com/0otRMyshuI
The 18-year-old winger has been tipped for a call up to the Wales squad and with George North and Josh Adams potentially filling in at outside centre during the 2020 Six Nations, he just might receive the call from Wayne Pivac.
