  1. Cardiff 12-19 Ulster

    Zac Ward with a monster run from his own 22 to over halfway before he's eventually chopped down.

    That's a big carry.

  2. Cardiff 12-19 Ulster

    Ulster hold firm and win the penalty! That's a huge turnover on their own line!

    Try - Cardiff 12-19 Ulster

    Werner Kok

    Jake Flannery is at the heart of things yet again.

    He does well to stand up in the tackle and pop the ball off to Stewart Moore, who then feeds Werner Kok for Ulster's third try.

    Flannery gets his first demerit for sending the conversion just wide, but he was key for that try!

    Ulster pinch the ball!

    They're in the danger area!

    Ian Humphreys
    Former Ulster fly-half Ian Humphreys on BBC Radio Foyle

    We have seen Ulster been opened a couple of times defensively when they potentially haven't communicated well or they aren't used to the combinations.

    There haven't been many missed tackles, just system errors.

  12. Cardiff 12-14 Ulster

    The players are back out on the pitch.

    What will the second 40 minutes bring?

    Considering the high stakes, I think both teams are performing really well,

    Some really exciting rugby and we saw some great width from Ulster at the end of the half.

    They [Ulster] have settled themselves and never seemed to be panicking.

  15. HT: Cardiff 12-14 Ulster

    Tony McWhirter

    Ben Thomas has been Cardiff's real livewire in the 12 position.

  16. Cardiff 12-14 Ulster

    For Cardiff, I have to say Tom Bowen has been a real handful.

    He was really good for the opening try, and then made a huge intervention at the other end to stop a charging Tom Stewart.

    It has been a great comeback.

    Ulster have built their way into it nicely. They didn't panic and have been well led by Tom Stewart.

    A half of two halves, but it's the visitors who hold a narrow lead.

  19. try

    Converted Try - Cardiff 12-14 Ulster

    James Hume (con Flannery)

    Out of nowhere!

    Callum Sheedy makes a bit of a mess of things in midfield, and the ball drops onto the ground.

    It pops up nicely for James Hume, who races clear to score unchallenged.

    Jake Flannery adds the simple conversion, and that will be that in the first half.

  20. Cardiff 12-7 Ulster

    Having seen a replay, that was crucial from Flannery.

    He's been really good so far tonight.
