    Edinburgh 7-7 Zebre

    A lovely little offload from Alessandro Fusco finds Junior Laloifi, and the Zebre full-back bursts into the Edinburgh 22.

    Good defensive work from Jaco van der Walt forces a knock-on, though, and Edinburgh have a scrum.

    Edinburgh 7-7 Zebre

    Pierre Schoeman, as ever, is making good ground when he carries.

    Edinburgh win a penalty deep inside Zebre territory, but Blair Kignhorn inexplicably kicks it dead going for the corner.

    Penalty Try Edinburgh 7-7 Zebrepublished at 14 mins

    Simone Gisi

    The initial contact was with Simone Gisi's shoulder, before sliding up on to the head, which means Glen Young is only shown a yellow card.

    We're all square.

    Edinburgh 7-0 Zebre

    Simone Gisi is set away down the left wing, and looks certain to score.

    As he dives in, Glen Young foils him with a high, swinging arm. Gisi is on his feet thankfully.

    This will be a penalty try, but what will Young's punishment be?

    Edinburgh 7-0 Zebre

    Edinburgh were consistently getting over the gain-line, but a Blair Kinghorn pass is picked off, and the visitors escape.

    Freddie Owsley then shoulder barges a Zebre player to the ground off the ball, and gives away a needless penalty.

    Edinburgh 7-0 Zebre

    Edinburgh have a penalty around the half-way line - there was no clear release on Blair Kinghorn after the fly-half was tackled.

    Kinghorn kicks for touch himself and makes good ground.

    Perfect start for Edinburgh. They play through the phases, Schoeman carries a couple of times, and Bennett gathers after a lovely grubber kick through.

    Mark Bennett

    What a start!

    Blair Kinghorn sees a huge amount of space in behind, and knocks a grubber kick into the gap for Mark Bennett to race onto.

    Jaco van der Walt adds the extras.

    Edinburgh v Zebre (19:45)

    Mike Blair has rotated his starting XV after Edinburgh's hugely impressive European Challenge Cup win against Bath last time out.

    Henry Pyrgos captain the side from scrum-half on a glorious spring evening.

    Jaco van der Walt, usually a fly-half, starts at full-back, Freddie Owsley comes in on the wing, and Cameron Hutchison partners Mark Bennett in the centres.

    Up front, Dave Cherry, Glen Young and Mesu Kunavula replace Scotland trio Stuart McInally, Grant Gilchrist and Magnus Bradbury.

    Edinburgh v Zebre (19:45)

    Rather unhelpfully, Zebre don't tweet out their lineups, so here it is in good old-fashioned text format:

    Zebre: Laloifi, Trulla, Cronjé, Lucchin, Gesi, Rizzi, Fusco; Fischetti, Bigi, Neculai, Venditti, Zambonin, Mitchell, Mbandà, Fox-Matamua.

    Substitutes: Ribaldi, Buonfiglio, Bello, Sisi, Andreani, Cook, O’Malley, Pani.

    Stormers 32-7 Glasgow

    That is that in Cape Town.

    Glasgow have been very much second best this evening.

    They have been inaccurate and indisciplined - that has to improve if they want to challenge in the league and in Europe.

    Evan Roos

    The Stormers find the bonus-point try right at the death.

    Number eight Evan Roos steps off his right foot, and crashes over to score.

    Six wins in a row for the South African outfit.

    Stormers 25-7 Glasgow

    Really scrappy stuff now in Cape Town.

    Glasgow are purely playing for pride at this stage, while the hosts push for a bonus point try.

    Stormers 25-7 Glasgow

    Pressure coming on from the Stormers, but Glasgow win a scrum penalty to get themselves out of jail.

    Stormers 25-7 Glasgow

    The referee decides there is enough mitigation to show Josh McKay yellow instead of red.

    The New Zealander can count himself lucky I'd say.
