Jaco!

It’s a huge nudge from the replacement! The deficit is cut slightly.

Under pressure

We’re under all sorts of pressure here, with Glasgow hammering our line. Sykes wins the ball, but we get turned over trying to play from deep. Glasgow point at the posts.

70

Ritchie pinged

Jamie takes the man out off the ball, and Glasgow will have an attacking lineout in our territory.

51

Ringing the changes

Sykes and Venter enter the fray, with Gilchrist and Schoeman making way.

50

Scrum pen!

We’ve looked dominant at the scrum, and eventually get our reward with a scrum penalty. The advantage comes to nothing, but we’ll have a lineout on the Glasgow 22.

49

Not straight

The lineout is squint from Fraser Brown. We’ll have a scrum on our 10.

48

Glasgow make ground

A tough one for Paterson, who loses the ball in the air and it’ll be a Glasgow lineout in our half.

44

So close!

It’s nearly a wonder try, with Lang breaking from deep to put Duhan through. Glashow scramble well though, and clear their lines. Scrappy play follows from both sides, and there will be a Glasgow scrum from just outside their 22.

42

Ball goes loose

The ball hits the deck at the maul and Glasgow look to counter, stopped by a huge hit from Mata. The hosts clear, and we have to rebuild from our own half.

More like it

16

Unlucky!

We’re putting the hosts under a heap of pressure, but Savala’s final pass is into the hands of a Glasgow player. Horne’s clearance is out on the full, however, so we’ll have another chance to attack around the 22.

13

Off the post!

Agonisingly close! The strike is good but it hits the post. Young knocks on trying to regather the ball, it’ll be a Glasgow put in inside their own 22.

19:23

Soaking at Scotstoun

A lot of rainfall here in Glasgow. It is quite damp.

19:16

An 1872 Cup facelift

Tonight’s prize is looking better than ever, with a rejuvenation to celebrate the 150th anniversary of tonight’s fixture. Thanks to the 150 project, we also have a finalised head-to-head between the cities, with the winners engraved on the base of the trophy.

19:10

Academy representing

A good opportunity to see one of our academy starlets in action. Harry Paterson has described himself as ‘rangy and elusive’, so will be hoping to get plenty of possession at full-back. Fellow academy players Paddy Harrison and Cammy Scott could feature from the bench.

18:53

One change before kick-off

We’re forced into a last minute change, with Wes Goosen withdrawing due to injury. Emiliano Boffelli shifts to the wing, with local lad Harry Paterson coming into the side for his second appearance for the club.

18:31

Welcome

Good evening, and welcome to the Galbraith Match Centre for tonight’s clash against Glasgow Warriors at Scotstoun Stadium; the first leg of the historic 150th anniversary clash against our fierce rivals from the west.
