    FT: Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Glasgow head coach Franco Smith on Viaplay:

    "The amount of opportunities we created [was a positive]. Disappointed we couldn't get the fourth try but our guys really stayed in the fight.

    "I feel there were a lot of the same errors as last week, but now we go on to the next game."

  3. Player of the Matchpublished at 21:32 Greenwich Mean Time 3 November 2023

    FT: Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Glasgow centre Sione Tuipulotu has been named player of the match, and has been giving his thoughts to Viaplay:

    "It's nice to come home and we got a win against a pretty decent side.

    "We didn't have to do much defending tonight because the forwards really stood up, especially at set-piece. There's still a lot to work on and hopefully we can kick on.

    "Franco wasn't too happy about last week so we got a bit of a kick up the bum in training."

    That is that at Scotstoun, as Glasgow comfortably beat last season's URC runners-up thanks to three first half tries.

    The clock is well in the red, but Stormers continue to play, looking for a losing bonus point.

    Sixty seconds left.

    Still no score in this second half, Glasgow won't care one bit.

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Under three minutes left, and Stormers centre Ben Loader knocks on.

    Everything is coming up Glasgow.

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Clayton Blommetjies' kick flies out on the full and hands Glasgow the initiative.

    With time ticking away, Stormers cannot afford errors like that.

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Glasgow look to their rolling maul again, but it comes to a halt well short of the Stormers line.

    Matt Fagerson then knocks-on and the chance slips away.

    We've still not had any points in this second half.

    If Glasgow are to get over the line here then I'm sure Franco Smith will highlight their defence as the reason.

    The Warriors have stood up well to everything the Stormers have thrown at them in this second half.

    Having ridden out the storm, can they press on and secure that bonus point with a fourth try?

    Just under 10 minutes left at Scotstoun.

    How are the nerves?

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    You could cut the tension at Scotstoun with a knife.

    Glasgow's Lucio Sordoni gives away a penalty for a no-arms tackle, but Stormers miss touch and Glasgow can come forward.

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Sione Vailanu gets over the ball to win a penalty for Glasgow, and punches the air with sheer delight.

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Stormers just will not go away here.

    They make their way into Glasgow's 22 again, and the hosts need another big defensive set.

  15. Postpublished at 61 mins

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Big moment in the game, as Glasgow win a penalty against the head and kick downfield.

    That has the potential to be a big momentum swing.

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Stormers have opted for a scrum under the posts, but it's been reset countless times now.

    Get on with it!

    Yes they can.

    It's held up, but we go back for a penalty - Sione Vailanu pinged for offside.

  18. Postpublished at 56 mins

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Here come Stormers.

    A powerful rolling maul takes them to within 5m of the Glasgow line.

    Can the Warriors keep them out?

  19. Postpublished at 51 mins

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Jean-Luc du Plessis punches a hole in the Glasgow defensive line, but Zander Fagerson slows the play down well before Stormers kncok-on.

    That was a real chance for the visitors.

    Glasgow 20-9 Stormers

    Brilliant defence from Stormers forces a Glasgow knock-on, and both Evan Roos and Joseph Dweba return to the fray.
