Edinburgh have started the second half far better than they did the first.

They force a penalty which they kick to the corner. Great attacking platform with a 5m line-out.

Unfortunately Stuart McInally's throw is picked off and Toulon clear.

Edinburgh's Blair Kinghorn kicks off the second half at the Stade Mayol.

It's been a great match so far.

The home crowd were whipped up into a frenzy before the match and within 90 seconds their side had claimed the initiative through a Guilhem Guirado try.

Darcy Graham's touchdown was just reward for a terrific Edinburgh response, but Facundo Isa's try ensured Toulon went in ahead at the break.

A huge 40 minutes to come. It's an old cliché, but the next score will be crucial.

Van Der Walt pushes his effort from 40m just wide and the home side go in four points up at the break.

What a find Darcy Graham has been for Edinburgh.

The former Hawick man has already notched a brilliant try and he bursts into the line again, shrugging off the tackles of far bigger men and taking his side into the danger zone.

Toulon are done for going off their feet at the breakdown and Jaco Van Der Walt will have a shot at goal at the end of the half.

This game is really open and that could benefit Edinburgh later in the game as they believe they are the fitter side.

A brilliant offload from Blair Kinghorn sets James Johnstone free. He finds Jamie Ritchie who carries well but Edinburgh can't recycle and the scrum is awarded to Toulon.

The rolling maul is repelled and Edinburgh look to go wide.

Jaco Van Der Walt is running sideways looking for options, Mathieu Bastareaud goes in with the tackle and the Edinburgh fly-half loses the ball forward.

Edinburgh are awarded a penalty that is well within Jaco Van Der Walt's range but instead they kick to the corner.

5m line-out to come....

There can't be too many wingers in Europe in form as good as that shown lately by Duhan Van Der Merwe.

The big South African collects the ball wide on the left and leaves Julian Savea for dead. However, just as he is bearing down on the try-line the whistle blows.

Replays show he stepped into touch about four times. A glimpse of his danger though.

This has been a breathless affair so far, like two heavyweight boxers trading blow after blow.

Edinburgh do not look panicked and have responded well to conceding that second Toulon try but Grant Gilchrist spills the ball and all 30 players might be excused for being relieved at the break for the scrum.

This is developing into a cracking European battle.

Edinburgh looked to have wrestled control of the game after a blistering start from the hosts but since Darcy Graham's try the three-times champions have raised the tempo again.

Another line-out 5m from the Edinburgh line....

Just what Edinburgh needed.

Bastareaud is pinged at the breakdown and Jaco van der Walt strokes a confident penalty straight between the uprights.

That should settle some Scottish nerves.

Edinburgh survive another Toulon attack when Anthony Belleau's kick through has too much on it and goes dead.

The battle at 13 appears to be a physical mismatch - the hulking figure of Mathieu Bastareaud up against the diminutive James Johnstone. The Scotland Sevens international doesn't shirk the tough stuff, but he's got his hands full with the Frenchman today.

On the face it of it they have nothing to play for but Toulon have started this game like men possessed, roared on by a passionate home support.

They force Edinburgh into another infringement around the ruck, again kick to the corner and again will test Edinburgh's defence.

Grant Gilchrist can't gather the kick-off, Bill Mata is penalised at the subsequent ruck and Toulon kick the penalty to the corner.

Early test for the visitors.

Here we go!

Toulon fly-half Anthony Belleau gets us under way at a raucous Stade Mayol.

There was an outside chance that Edinburgh could have guaranteed a spot in the quarter-finals with victory at Toulon today. However, events elsewhere in Pool 5 have ensured their fate will not be decided today.

Vern Cotter's Montpellier destroyed Newcastle 45-8 at Altrad Stadium earlier today to move top of the pool, one point clear of Edinburgh. The result also confirmed that Toulon can not qualify for the next stage.

The two sides meet at Murrayfield on Friday to determine who will top the group, but Edinburgh know a win today will put them in a great position to progress.
