  1. Goodnight!published at 21:49 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Thanks for joining us tonight - Leinster just too good for Glasgow in the end.

    We'll be back next weekend as Scotland take on Tonga in the first of the Autumn Internationals.

  2. 'We got outmuscled'published at 21:46 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    FT: Glasgow 15-31 Leinster

    Danny Wilson's turn to talk to Premier Sports:

    "We got outmuscled tonight to be honest, which is frustrating", he said. "They took their opportunities - they're ruthless. Whereas we got turned over when we had our chances."

    "That's a bit of a learning curve for us, and we can see that that's where we need to be. We're back in the game at half-time, but didn't take advantage of the yellow card, and then between 50 and 70 minutes we fell off a bit."

  3. 'We managed the game nicely'published at 21:41 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    FT: Glasgow 15-31 Leinster

    Leinster coach Leo Cullen has been talking to Premier Sports post-match:

    "We showed good composure, there's always a bit of niggle when we come here", he said. "We're pretty pleased with this block of games. We had to dig in defensively at times tonight, but managed the game nicely."

  4. Man of the Matchpublished at 21:34 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Ronan Kelleher

    Leinster's hooker only played 55 minutes tonight, but he was superb in both defence and attack, and scored the best try of the game to boot.

  5. Full-time - Glasgow Warriors 15-31 Leinsterpublished at 21:28 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Leinster run out deserved winners at Scotstoun - it'll take a seriously good side to stop them this season.

    Ross Byrne orchestrated proceedings from fly-half as his team ran in four tries.

    Try - Glasgow Warriors 15-31 Leinsterpublished at 21:26 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Lewis Bean

    As in the first half, Glasgow score after Leinster go down to 14 men.

    Lewis Bean goes over from close range - nothing more than a consolation.

    Conversion taken quickly, and missed.

  7. Sin-bin - Jamison Gibson-Park (Leinster)published at 21:25 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Glasgow Warriors 10-31 Leinster

    Leinster's substitute scrum-half looks to take a quick tap-and-go, and lashes out at George Horne, who had stood in his way.

    Unnecessary really with 90 seconds left.

  8. Closing stagespublished at 21:22 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Glasgow Warriors 10-31 Leinster

    Glasgow are playing purely for pride now, and come forward again.

    Once more though, Leinster stand strong and win a scrum - they've been a class above tonight, and will go into the Autumn Internationals with five wins from five.

  9. Everything coming up Leinsterpublished at 21:18 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Glasgow Warriors 10-31 Leinster

    Glasgow come forward, and find themselves as close as they've been in the second half.

    Rhys Ruddock wins a penalty for Leinster though at the breakdown - it just isn't Glasgow's night.

  10. Into the last 10published at 21:14 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Glasgow Warriors 10-31 Leinster

    The Irish side get to within 5m of Glasgow's line again, but this time the Warriors repel them, and come away with a penalty.

    They're still fighting hard here.

  11. Feeling the Byrnepublished at 21:09 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Glasgow Warriors 10-31 Leinster

    It was this try that really put Leinster in the ascendancy.

  12. Close, but no cigarpublished at 65 mins

    Glasgow Warriors 10-31 Leinster

    Glasgow make their way into Leinster's 22, but George Turner knocks on after a huge collision.

    There has been absolutely no drop off in the visitor's defensive intensity.

    Dan Sheehan

    It felt inevitable - the combination of Leinster's power and their speed of ball is remarkable.

    Dan Sheehan gets to the line, having come off the bench earlier, and earns the visitors a bonus point.

    Conversion added.

  14. Wave after wavepublished at 21:01 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Glasgow Warriors 10-24 Leinster

    Leinster's forwards smash it up time and time again, just metres out.

    They knock on but had a penalty advantage to fall back on. They will come again...

  15. Relentlesspublished at 57 mins

    Glasgow Warriors 10-24 Leinster

    George Horne has a box-kick charged down as Leinster smother Glasgow and win back possession.

    The Warriors need to keep their heads above water here...

    Try - Glasgow Warriors 10-24 Leinsterpublished at 20:52 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Adam Byrne

    Leinster are just lethal when they get a sniff of the opposition's try-line!

    They go wide, and Adam Byrne just about gets the ball down in the corner.

    Ross Byrne kicks the conversion.

  17. Scramble defencepublished at 20:51 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Glasgow Warriors 10-17 Leinster

    What a tackle! Luke McGrath looked like he had a clear run to the line, but Leinster's captain is remarkably hauled down just 10m out.

    Danger not fully averted though for the Warriors...

  18. Good cover defencepublished at 20:48 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Glasgow Warriors 10-17 Leinster

    James Lowe throws a slightly optimistic pass out to Dan Leavy, who gets forced into touch by three Glasgow defenders - neither side giving an inch so far in the second half.

    Leinster are back up to 15 players as Jack Conan returns from the sin-bin.

  19. Brick wallpublished at 20:43 British Summer Time 22 October 2021

    Glasgow Warriors 10-17 Leinster

    However, Glasgow make very little ground in possession, and Leinster win a penalty of their own after Zander Fagerson becomes isolated.

    Really solid defence from the visitors.

  20. Numerical advantagepublished at 43 mins

    Glasgow Warriors 10-17 Leinster

    Leinster are still down a man, and Glasgow make it count at the first scrum of the half - Zander Fagerson winning a penalty for the hosts.
