  1. Ulster 21-8 Benetton

    Benetton seem keen to get the ball into the wide channels following their success in the first half.

    Jacob Stockdale gingerly walks off for a HIA after a collision in midfield.

  2. Ulster 21-8 Benetton

    First scrum of this half to Ulster, and they win a free-kick, early push from Benetton.

    HT: Ulster 21-8 Benetton

    Ulster have taken every chance they have been given to take a healthy lead into the second period.

    Much more clinical from the home side.

    Jacob Stockdale (40 mins)

    Ulster are in for their third try.

    This time it's Stuart McCloskey with the chip and chase. It's picked up by Jacob Stockdale and he breaks a couple of tackles before beating Jacob Umaga this time for pace to touch down close to the posts.

    John Cooney grabs the extras.

  7. Ulster 14-8 Benetton

    Ulster tight-head prop Scott Wilson with some impressive open-ground running, adding to his ever-expanding highlights reel.

    Reuben Crothers (33 mins)

    Ulster retake the lead after some trademark pick-and-go's from a penalty lineout inside the Benetton 22.

    Harry Sheridan goes close, before Reuben Crothers picks up form the base and slides over the line.

    John Cooney again picks up the extra two.

  9. Ulster 7-8 Benetton

    Breathless stuff here in Belfast, but not always the most clinical.

    Ulster under threat of turnover at most rucks thanks to an excellent Benetton defence.

  10. Watch: Stewart replies with Ulster's first try

  11. Ulster 7-8 Benetton

    The Italian side challenging for everything at the moment and score another turnover outside their own 22.

    Ulster then infringe on halfway with a lazy runner, and Benetton grab a penalty.

    This time Jacob Umaga misses his kick.

  13. Penalty Ulster 7-8 Benetton

    Jacob Umaga (25 mins)

    Dave McCann can't keep his hands off the ball on the ground and it's a simple penalty from in front of the posts from Jacob Umaga.

  14. Ulster 7-5 Benetton

    An entertaining game so far, both sides showing plenty of intent in attack and plentiful turnovers also!

  15. try

    Tom Stewart (16 mins)

    Ulster back in the game.

    After some pressure inside the Benetton 22, it's John Cooney at the base of a ruck with a trademark snipe, and a fantastic offload in the tackle to Tom Stewart who runs in unopposed under the sticks.

    Cooney adds the extras with ease.

  16. Ulster 0-5 Benetton

    No sooner have Benetton cleared than they are attacking down the left, and it is left to Rob Baloucoune to tackle the man into touch inside his 22. Sigh of relief at the Kingspan.

  17. Ulster 0-5 Benetton

    Jacob Stockdale almost hits back with a trademark chip and chase down the left after some smart play from Billy Burns.

    However, the big winger is just missing a yard of pace from a couple years ago and full-back Jacob Umaga gets back in time to collect and offload for the clearance.

  18. try

    Try Ulster 0-5 Benetton

    Tommaso Menoncello (7 mins)

    Well worked try from the visitors.

    The ball is worked brilliantly from left to right and Ulster are sucked into committing too many tacklers to leave Tommaso Menoncello, the big centre to touch down in the corner.

    The conversion is unsuccessful.

  19. Ulster 0-0 Benetton

    First scrum of the night goes the way of Ulster just inside the visitors' half.

    But it is Benetton who win the penalty. This Ulster front-row struggled early on against Cardiff last week.

  20. Kick-off

    Ulster 0-0 Benetton

    We are underway at the Kingspan

    Can the home side make it two home wins in a row? Let's see.
