  2. 'We've brought resilience' - Hornepublished at 21:51 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2022

    FT: Glasgow 16-10 Edinburgh

    A delighted Glasgow assistant coach Pete Horne has also been talking to Radio Scotland:

    "We're chuffed," he said. "It was pretty scruffy, but derbies are never as glamorous as you hope they are going to be.

    "It was a brilliant finish [from Jack Dempsey], and it galvanised us a little bit. We came away with another three, and we're pleased - it was a solid first half.

    "We've brought a bit more resilience. That's shone through in the last few weeks.

    "It's really satisfying. It comes down to desire, being technically sound and looking after the ball.

    "I'm delighted for [brother George Horne]. He's been injured, so it's great to see him going well. He's such a competitive little bugger, and his kicking has been on the money."

  4. 'We're disappointed' - Boylepublished at 21:36 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2022

    FT: Glasgow 16-10 Edinburgh

    Edinburgh's try-scorer Connor Boyle has been giving his take on the game to BBC Radio Scotland:

    "The try was a reflection of us as a forward pack," he said. "When we get in those corners, we know we can score from those.

    "In the game, if we'd been a bit more disciplined, used our kicking game a bit better then we'd have had more opportunities to do that.

    "It was slippy, but we practice with slippy balls so I don't think it affected us too much.

    "That's a game we're disappointed with. As a team, our physicality underpins everything - we did that more consistently second half.

    "Hopefully we can put things right next week."

  5. Player of the Matchpublished at 21:32 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2022

    FT: Glasgow 16-10 Edinburgh

    Glasgow's Richie Gray has been named Player of the Match, and has been giving his thought to Viaplay post-match:

    "It was tough - a physical game," he said.

    "It was always going to be a battle of attrition - delighted with the win, but this is just the first half.

    "I expect the exact same thing next week, I'm looking forward to it."

    It wasn't easy on the eye, but it was full of of commitment and aggression. This was a massively hard-fought win for Glasgow. It will feel very sweet.

    James Lang is bundled into touch, and Glasgow win the first leg of the 1872 Cup, in addition to four URC points.

    We'll bring you reaction as and when it comes.

    That has sailed straight through - a great kick.

    The kick-off is pouched safely.

    Edinburgh will have to go the length of the field...

    Glasgow 16-7 Edinburgh

    Edinburgh have possession, but aren't really going anywhere with it, before Glasgow stray offside - Jamie Ritchie points to the posts, but it's a long way out.

    90 seconds left at Scotstoun - will we get a grandstand finish?

    Edinburgh have it all to do now, with just five minutes to go.

    Glasgow 13-7 Edinburgh

    Glasgow make their way into the Edinburgh 22, but the visitors win a turnover and look to have survived.

    However, Ben Muncaster gets absolutely crunched by JP du Preez, and Glasgow win a penalty from the resulting breakdown.

    Tom Jordan calls for his kicking tee, and will look to stretch the lead beyond one converted try.

    Ah, no more film references this evening folks - Tom Cruse is replaced by Patrick Harrison.

    Back on the field, a Henry Pyrgos box-kick causes all sorts of problems, but Glasgow win a penalty after Jamie Ritchie takes someone out off the ball.

    Here's what that try meant to Connor Boyle and Edinburgh.

    Tom Cruse there, giving Boyle a big hug - in this weather, the Edinburgh hooker could be described as Rain Man...

    Glasgow 10-7 Edinburgh

    It was a huge tackle from Bill Mata that inspired that tweet from Andy, but sadly for Edinburgh fans, Mata has now been forced from the field with a little knock.

    His physical presence will be sorely missed as this game approaches its crescendo.

    A scrappy passage of play ends with an awful sliced kick from Harry Paterson that flies into touch on the full.

    That won't make any highlights reels.

    And they are back in it!

    Edinburgh's unpredictable lineout works perfectly on this occasion. They set up a maul, which makes good progress, and then Connor Boyle breaks away and holds off two Glasgow defenders to score.

    Emiliano Boffelli has found his kicking boots, and Glasgow's lead is cut to just three points.
