  1. Replacement

    Harlequins 8-10 Gloucester

    Tight-head prop John Afoa leaves play injured with Nicky Thomas coming on in his place. Joe Marler will fancy himself against Thomas. 

  2. Harlequins 8-10 Gloucester

    Gloucester are penalised again at a scrum for an early drive - they're under pressure here. It's re-set and the ball emerges out the back of another scrum and Jamie Roberts unusually spills the ball in midfield. 

  3. Harlequins 8-10 Gloucester

    Gloucester are penalised for numbers in the line-out and Quins go for the scrum inside their opponent's 22. 

  4. Harlequins 8-10 Gloucester

    Quins win a penalty at scrum and that's an early feather in Joe Marler's cap. 

  5. Penalty (Greig Laidlaw)

    Harlequins 8-10 Gloucester

    Greig Laidlaw puts Gloucester back in front with his first penalty of the game. Open game here at Twickenham. 

  6. Harlequins 8-7 Gloucester

    Danny Care is enjoying himself out there and his kicking in behind Gloucester is constantly putting his side on the front foot. Meanwhile, Jonny May gets his hands on the ball for the first time as Quins are penalised for offside. 

  7. Harlequins 8-7 Gloucester

    Nice set-piece try for Harlequins. It all worked very smoothly and Jamie Roberts just adds that extra dimension in the first phase off the ruck.

  8. try

    Try (Yarde, missed con Evans)

    Harlequins 8-7 Gloucester

    Jamie Roberts is used on the crash ball in midfield and that creates space for Marland Yarde on the right wing as he flies over for Quins' first try of the game. Nick Evans is unsuccessful with the conversion but they have a one-point lead.

  9. Harlequins 3-7 Gloucester

    Jack Clifford bursts through midfield from inside his own 22 to take Harlequins deep into Gloucester's half. It's a fine run from the Quins flanker and they have a line-out in Gloucester's 22. 

  10. Penalty (Nick Evans)

    Harlequins 3-7 Gloucester

    Nick Evans makes no mistake to open Harlequins' account at Twickenham. 

  11. Harlequins 0-7 Gloucester

    Gloucester lose their own line-out and under pressure they concede a penalty from virtually in front of their own posts. 

  12. Harlequins 0-7 Gloucester

    Gloucester's line-out is solid and Grieg Laidlaw clears to relieve the pressure. Quins come roaring back and appear to have an overlap but Joe Marler is penalised for coming in from the side. What a waste. 

  13. Harlequins 0-7 Gloucester

    Scrum-half Danny Care sees space in behind and puts a beautiful chip into Gloucester's 22 and Quins finally have decent territory. 

  14. Harlequins 0-7 Gloucester

    So Gloucester rewarded for a solid start to the game, what have Quins got in response?

  15. try

    Try (Thrush, con Laidlaw)

    Harlequins 7-0 Gloucester

    Jeremy ThrushRex Features

    Gloucester think they have the first try of the game. Charlie Sharples beats Mike Brown to a high ball, the ball is hacked forward and Jeremy Thrush beats Jack Clifford to touchdown. Grieg Laidlaw sends over the conversion. 

  16. Harlequins 0-0 Gloucester

    James Hook sends through a delightful grubber kick but the bounce evade Billy Twelvetrees and Mike Brown is relieved to see the ball run out of play. 

  17. Harlequins 0-0 Gloucester

    Harlequins intent on kicking away possession and their discipline has been poor in this opening five minutes, conceding two penalties as Gloucester kick into the home 22.

  18. Harlequins 0-0 Gloucester

    And it's Gloucester fly-half James Hook who gets proceedings under way at Twickenham.

  19. Harlequins v Gloucester (16:30 GMT)

    Minutes away from kick-off at Twickenham as both set of teams emerge from the tunnel. Quins walk out to pyrotechnics and an impressive light show. 

  20. FT: Bath 21-14 Worcester

    I think we deserved to win the game but it wasn't about the performance, it was about getting the win and getting the confidence up. Hopefully we can get another next week and then push on in Europe.
