  1. La Rochelle 24-27 Glasgow

    Replacement scrum-half Ali Price is pinged for a high tackle on Kevin Gourdon and La Rochelle kick the ball into the corner. Can they hit back immediately?

    What a way for Kyle Steyn to celebrate signing a new contract this week! What a score for Glasgow

    Try- La Rochelle 24-27 Glasgow

    Kyle Steyn

    What. A. Try.

    Steyn is just on the pitch and collects Adam Hastings' dinked kick before charging forward to beat Vincent Rattez and touch down. Some impact by the big winger!

    Adam Hastings adds the extras and Glasgow have turned this game round!

  4. La Rochelle 24-20 Glasgow

    Glasgow are starting to count the missed opportunities to score now. Some silky hands by Tommy Seymour puts Nick Grigg through a gap but he's hauled down short. La Rochelle's Tawera Kerr-Barlow is quickest to get hands on the ball to win the penalty.

  5. La Rochelle 24-20 Glasgow

    Oh dear, Matt Fagerson makes a charge for the line, he's tackled and La Rochelle pile into the ruck and get the turnover, it's great defence. Too many Glasgow players were standing watching, though.

  6. La Rochelle 24-20 Glasgow

    Dany Priso gets a warning from the referee after giving away another penalty. The next one's a yellow, he's told.

  7. La Rochelle 24-20 Glasgow

    Glasgow get the penalty and they opt to scrum again.

  8. La Rochelle 24-20 Glasgow

    Andy Burke
    BBC Scotland rugby reporter

    Every time it looks like Glasgow are about to fall out of the contest they find a way to haul themselves back into it.

    That was a high-risk gamble from Niko Matawalu to go for the intercept but it paid off big time.

    Warriors need to tighten up on their discipline though as Jules Plisson looks like he will kick everything today.

  9. La Rochelle 24-20 Glasgow

    The TMO had a look at that, but there's no evidence that Scott Cummings managed to ground the ball. He reached out but couldn't quite get it down. It's Glasgow's scrum, 5m out.

  10. La Rochelle 24-20 Glasgow

    Scott Cummings charges through a gap and comes within inches of a try! The referee is checking something, though...

  11. La Rochelle 24-20 Glasgow

    Now it's La Rochelle's turn to make a mistake from the kick-off. Scrum-half Alexis Bales passes the ball back into the 22 and Jules Plisson blasts it out on the full to give Glasgow the lineout in a promising position.

  12. Penalty- La Rochelle 24-20 Glasgow

    Jules Plisson

    It's disappointing for Glasgow as Adam Hastings fumbles a kick off, then they are penalised for killing the ball. Plisson steps up and squeezes the ball just inside the posts to give La Rochelle a bit more breathing space.

  13. 'An outstanding score'

    La Rochelle 21-20 Glasgow

    Rory Lawson
    Former Scotland captain on BBC Radio Scotland

    Matawalu done absolutely brilliantly. It's an outstanding score and a real momentum shifter. As it stands, it's now only a one point game!

  14. try

    Try- La Rochelle 21-20 Glasgow

    Niko Matawalu

    It's an intercept and the Fijian runs the length!

    Glasgow defended well on their own line, stole a turnover and cleared the ball down the pitch. La Rochelle go for a quick lineout and then Victor Vito throws a pass which Matawalu reads brilliantly before haring down the right wing to touch down.

    Adam Hastings then kicks a worldie from the touchline and it's game on!

  15. La Rochelle 21-13 Glasgow

    Glasgow managed to reverse the scrum, but for about the fiftieth time this afternoon, they're penalised for holding on as Victor Vito gets his hands on the ball.

    The home side kick to the corner.

  16. La Rochelle 21-13 Glasgow

    Glasgow lock Jonny Gray this time is penalised at the ruck. La Rochelle go for the corner rather than the posts.

    There's a Glasgow knock on from the lineout and the home side will now have a 5m scrum.

  17. 'Breathless opening'

    La Rochelle 21-13 Glasgow

    Rory Lawson
    Former Scotland captain on BBC Radio Scotland

    Its been a breathless opening to the second half. Both sides are looking to play and looking to play quickly.

  18. La Rochelle 21-13 Glasgow

    Glasgow get a penalty for offside, but George Horne taps it quickly before a kick is driven through and the ball is lost for a La Rochelle lineout. Horne might have been better allowing Adam Hastings to get the team further up the pitch.

  19. Penalty- La Rochelle 21-13 Glasgow

    Jules Plisson

    It was pretty much a gimme for the French fly-half, and the home side are now two scores in front.

  20. La Rochelle 18-13 Glasgow

    Vincent Rattez is some player. He sprints through a gap from deep and fends off Ryan Wilson before Glasgow scramble and recover. But, as was so often the case in the first half, Glasgow are penalised at the breakdown and Jules Plisson will have the chance to put three points on the board.
