    That's all from us tonight.

    Thanks for joining us on a great night for Edinburgh, and a disappointing one for Bath.

    FT: Edinburgh 41-19 Bath

    Edinburgh head coach Mike Blair has also been talking to BBC Radio Scotland

    "It's a difficult one to talk about", he said. "I said at half-time that I was frustrated, but excited.

    "I'm frustrated because we gave Bath everything they wanted at the start of the game. We gave them four unforced penalties, which they capitalised on. On another day we are 20 points down. I was excited because when we had the ball we executed.

    "I'm happy because we showed a lot of resilience to come back. Blair [Kinghorn] at 10 is a huge run-pass threat. I thought he was excellent tonight. Schoeman was excellent - I think I'd be good if I had people chanting my name every time I touched the ball!"

    Kinghorn played the best game I've seen from him. He was always a threat. His skillset is amazing, he cruises, he glides, and he's got so much pace and strength.

    FT: Edinburgh 41-19 Bath

    Don't get me wrong, Pierre Schoeman was fantastic tonight, but Blair Kinghorn was the standout for me.

    He turned the tide in Edinburgh's favour, after Bath dominated the first half. So good to watch when he's on song.

    Player of the match Pierre Schoeman has been talking to BBC Radio Scotland on the whistle:

    "We enjoyed that a lot", he said. "The fans were excellent. We didn't start well, so we spoke at half-time about how we have to be better.

    "It's a privilege playing here. We've got a quality team, I just have to do my job."

    Icing on the cake for Edinburgh!

    Connor Boyle bursts through a gap with expert timing, and scores under the posts unopposed.

    Conversion added.

    Edinburgh 34-19 Bath

    The visitors look to launch an attack from deep, but they have completely run out of steam.

    A Danny Cipriani cross-kick rolls into touch.

    A silly high shot from the Edinburgh sub means the hosts will play the last seven minutes with 14 players.

    Henry Pyrgos controlling things around the base. When it comes out to Mark Bennett, he pins his ears back when he should have passed. Bath should have stopped him, they had numbers in there.

    Another one! Raw power from Mark Bennett sees him crash over.

    He probably should have passed, but several Bath defenders couldn't keep the Scotland centre out.

    The conversion drifts wide.

    Edinburgh 29-19 Bath

    The Dam Health is really behind their team now - Bath will be rueing that they didn't take advantage of their first-half dominance.

    Edinburgh now have a line-out inside the Bath 22 after a wonderful kick from James Lang secures a 50-22.

    Brilliant try to stretch the lead!

    Blair Kinghorn throws a huge bounce-pass out to Jaco van der Walt, who in turn sets Emiliano Boffelli free down the left wing.

    The Argentine winger barges his way through the last defender to score his second try of the night.

    He adds the extras too.

    Hamish Watson and Sam Underhill clash in midfield - two decent opensides there.

    Underhill just hangs onto the ball as Watson tries to force him into touch.

    Blair Kinghorn makes it - he gets his hands free, and gives it to Schoeman. He's right where all good looseheads should be, right on the shoulder, and then is on hand to score.

    Pierre Schoeman

    Edinburgh work their way to the Bath line - Marshall Sykes is stopped just short.

    The power of Pierre Schoeman is on display again as he dives over to score.

    Emiliano Boffelli knocks over the conversion.

    When Edinburgh do get possession, Blair Kinghorn looks so, so dangerous.

    He bursts through one tackle, and then offloads brilliantly to Pierre Schoeman, who thunders his way deep into Bath territory.

    James Lang breaks the line, but Magnus Bradbury is now shaking his head - the referee blows in favour of Sam Underhill and Bath on this occasion.
