Irish province Connacht racked up their highest score in Europe as they cantered past Cetransa El Salvador 75-8 at the Sportsground.
Connacht, who earned a bonus point in last weekend's 15-9 loss in Brive, ran in 10 tries against the out-classed Spanish side.
Winger Ofisa Treviranus and centre Danny Riordan both bagged two tries inside the hour and Riordan's third in the dying minutes took the home side past the 70-point mark.
Spain's Test number eight Ivan Criado followed up his try against Newcastle last week with another five-pointer tonight, but it was one-way traffic against a side who had their try bonus point in the bag inside 26 minutes.
