    Glasgow 16-32 La Rochelle

    Glasgow were in the lead just over ten minutes ago, and now find themselves 16 points behind.

    This sort of collapse is becoming a worrying habit.

    Pierre Boudehent

    Glasgow have somehow conceded after having a lineout inside La Rochelle's 22...

    The home side cough up possession, Dillen Leyds kicks it downfield, and the ball bobbles into the hands of Pierre Boudehent, who is almost celebrating before he touches down to score - it's all very avoidable for Glasgow.

    Pierre Popelin kicks the conversion once more.

    Pierre Popelin

    Ross Thompson has to go backwards in order to collect a stray pass, but is isolated when he takes contact.

    Glasgow concede a penalty at the breakdown which Pierre Popelin kicks with ease.

    You don't want to be over-critical, but Ali Price is a British Lion. He's the current Scotland scrum-half and that's two kicks which are unacceptable. One just before half-time which cost them a try, and he's just done exactly the same again. He's putting his team under pressure by not executing simple tasks.

    Bourgarit smashed through Matt Fagerson's attempted tackle. Fagerson got some treatment in the first half and it looked there like he just fell off the tackle. The hooker just drove right through him to go in next to the post.

    Pierre Bourgarit

    That lead didn't last too long.

    Pierre Bougarit runs a hard line and goes straight through Matt Fagerson to score - far too easy.

    Pierre Popelin adds the extras.

    Ross Thompson - what a ball carrier he is, eh! It's quick ball, La Rochelle's defence is all over the place. What a great left-handed pass, and McKay showed enough gas.

    Brilliant start to the second half for Glasgow!

    Ross Thompson, with ball in hand, picks a gap and goes straight through it. He picks out Josh McKay, who pins his ears back and scores in the corner.

    Thompson adds the extras and Glasgow lead.

    This game could be over - it probably should be over. La Rochelle have had four or five really good visits to Glasgow's 22. They should have had a penalty try after a few minutes. They've played with great ambition and accuracy for the most part. Glasgow have been surviving on scraps. They've been totally and utterly outplayed and they're deeply fortunate it's only six points.

    That missed conversion is the last action of the first half.

    Glasgow have been very much second best.

    One of the biggest guys in the Glasgow pack is Kebble - at no point did he get his head into that maul to try and stop it. He's 140kg! He's a guy who should be getting there, using his size and physicality.

    A big blow for the Warriors.

    From looking to retake the lead themselves, Glasgow concede as La Rochelle force their way over from the line-out - the French side's forward grunt shines through.

    Conversion missed.

    La Rochelle are now inside Glasgow's 22 as the clocks ticks past 40 minutes.

    They earn a penalty which Pierre Popelin nudges into the corner.

    It was really good attacking play with Jack Dempsey at the forefront on two or three occasions. Just sheer brutality with the carry. Tall physique, big knee drive. That should have been a score, though.

    Josh McKay then tries a little flicked pass as the visitors' defence flew up, but it went to no-one in particular and La Rochelle can clear.

    Josh McKay bursts through the La Rochelle defence, and Glasgow have a great chance as we go into half-time...

    A brief stoppage as both teams run repairs.

    Glasgow will have a scrum inside their own half when we resume.

    Three from three tonight for Ross Thompson.

    He's good off the tee as well Peter.
