    Huge turnover for Leinster.

    Garry Ringrose and centre partner Robbie Henshaw hold up Kyle Steyn in the tackle and win the scrum for their team. Outstanding from the Ireland internationals.

    That could be the game right there.

    They're trying to say he landed on his shoulder - just a yellow card is a disgrace. He lands on his shoulder and his head at the same time. I get he doesn't want to send him off - but that's a red card.

    The Ireland full-back gets away with a yellow. 'That's a disgrace' says former Scotland prop Peter Wright in commentary.

    Stuart Hogg's game is over too. His last game for Glasgow.

    Oh no. Rob Kearney and Stuart Hogg clash in the air and Hogg seemed to be knocked out cold.

    He's back conscious now, the Scotland full-back. Could this be a red card for Kearney? He seemed to take Hogg in the air there.

    Leinster's defence continues to be relentless. They've managed to shove Glasgow back about 30 yards through their line-speed and physicality.

    The Warriors need something from nothing if they're to win this.

    Leinster's class is showing now, they've upped it a couple of gears. They know how to play cup final football - you video this and show it to players and say this is how you play pressure football

    And Glasgow get the scrum penalty! The forwards are giving each other a little cuddle after that one.

    A chance now for Glasgow finally to get out of their own half.

    Finally, it comes out and the ball slips from Leinster scrum-half Luke McGrath's hands.

    Guess what? It's another scrum. But this time Glasgow have the put-in.

    The scrum, is a mess.

    Another reset coming up. The boos ring around Celtic Park.

    Scrum penalty to Leinster now. Oli Kebble penalised for coming in on the angle I think.

    Ominous signs here. Glasgow are back up to 15 though, Kyle Steyn returns from the sin-bin. Bit of handbags now too. Ryan Wilson is involved, shocker.

  11. Leinster silence Celtic Parkpublished at 20:00 British Summer Time 25 May 2019

    The players entered the field to a cacophony of noise at the start of the match, with most of the crowd cheering for the home side.

    But Celtic Park has gone pretty quiet as Warriors struggle to make any inroads into this mean Leinster defence.

    The unforced errors have been killing Glasgow, and while eight points is by no means game over, there is a definite sense that this final is slipping away.

    Leinster now have a 5m scrum after Callum Gibbins is hauled down over his own line by Robbie Henshaw and James Ryan.

    Outstanding intensity from the defending champions. If they score here, it's probably all over.

    Too many errors from Glasgow - Gray, Harley twice, and Stewart now, losing the ball in vital positions. You do that against mediocre teams and you get away with it, you do it against class teams it just kills you.

    Sam Johnson goes off with an injury for Glasgow. Pete Horne comes on. Leinster have the line-out on halfway.

    So frustrating for Glasgow. Tommy Seymour takes the kick-off superbly with an AFL-style catch, but then they knock on.

    They're now back in their own 22 after the scrum. Leinster are turning the screw now.

    A two-score game now - it is a big, big ask for Glasgow with another six or seven minutes with 14 men

    No mistake from the Leinster captain.

    It's a two score game now. On come Oli Kebble and Ryan Wilson for Glasgow. Jamie Bhatti and Rob Harley make way.

    Glasgow think they have a turnover but Rob Harley is pinged for not releasing at the ruck. Or is it offside? Nigel Owens can't seem to make up his mind.

    Leinster penalty 5 metres out, just to the left of the posts. Johnny Sexton is going for the posts.

    Here come Leinster. Their driving maul is stopped but the phases keep coming.

    You sense a score here could kill it.

  20. Sin-bin- Kyle Steyn (Glasgow)published at 48 mins

    Glasgow 10-15 Leinster

    It's end-to-end here!

    Glasgow finally put together some nice incisive play, but a loose pass results in Garry Ringrose and then James Lowe speeding through. Glasgow scramble back and make the tackles, but Kyle Steyn is sin-binned for deliberately slowing the ball down.
