    Try: Gloucester 19-0 Scarletspublished at 31 mins

    George Barton

    Gloucester have been on the back foot for the last 10 minutes but show a clinical edge to hit straight back when they get back up the other end.

    The full-back has the speed and angle to squeeze over in the right corner.

    Gloucester 14-0 Scarlets

    The referee has had a second look at a potential no-arms tackle by Scarlets centre Eddie James.. but no concerns.

    The Shed faithful aren't impressed and greet the decision with chants of 'you don't know what you're doing!'.

    Play on.

    Gloucester 14-0 Scarlets

    Scarlets have really woken up here and have dominated the last eight minutes - but they have nothing to show for it.

    Scarlets run the penalty and hooker Marnus van der Merwe is held up between the posts.

    Great defence by Glos.

    Gloucester are lucky there, they have been cynical around the breakdown.

    From a Scarlets point of view I'd be disappointed there wasn't a yellow card.

    Gloucester 14-0 Scarlets

    Scarlets have a go with their lineout drive but it's dragged down short by Gloucester.

    Referee Jeremy Rozier is having a word with Lewis Ludlow because that's about three penalties in a row inside the home team's 22-yard line.

    They're lucky not to get a card.

    Ooh for one moment Santi Carreras thought he was clear.

    The fly-half got his fingertips to Eddie James' pass and there was clear green grass ahead of him to the try line at the other end.

    Fair play, their team is losing but there's a wonderful rendition of Welsh hymn Calon Lan ringing out.

    Scarlets have to be careful because this game could easily slip away.

    We know what it is like at Kingsholm, once the Shed gets going this Gloucester team kick into gear and can score points.

    Jack Clement try, Santi Carreras con

    Gloucester's rolling maul is a well-oiled machine and they rumble over in the right-hand corner.

    There was a sense of inevitability about that one.

    It is a comedy of errors, particularly from the Scarlets point of view.

    Everything looks a little bit rushed and a little unorganised.

    Scarlets back-row Taine Plumtree wraps his arms around Santi Carreras and hoists the fly-half into the air.

    Gloucester 7-0 Scarlets

    Gloucester steal possession at the breakdown and counter-attack from deep inside their own half.

    The hosts are feeling confident. Not a surprise after four wins on the bounce here at Kingsholm.

    Gloucester 7-0 Scarlets

    Sam Costelow is clutching his shoulder and his night is over.

    That's another worry for Scarlets - and Wales with Warren Gatland naming his Six Nations squad on Monday.

    And on his birthday as well!

    Ioan Nicholas comes on and full-back Ioan Lloyd moves to fly-half.

    We've just flagged the centres and Eddie James shows what he can do, crashing through two tackles and off-loading to Ioan Lloyd.

    Bread of Heaven ringing out from the Shed... weird!

    You're right Chris. It's a fascinating contest between the two sizeable centre-pairs with three potential Wales call-ups.

    We know how talented this Scarlets back-line is, and there is a lot of talk down west about what Macs Page can do.

    Scarlets get their first crack at the hosts but some big hits knock the scarlet jerseys back time and again.

    Eddie James runs into a brick wall before Vaea Fifita spills the ball under another heavy challenge.

    Gloucester clear.

    When you're playing away from home you need composure.

    From a Scarlets point of view you have to put this re-start to bed and start putting pressure on Gloucester.

    Englefield try, Carreras con

    Gloucester turn down a shot at goal and are eventually rewarded.

    Christian Wade chips over the top of the on-rushing Scarlets defence and Chris Harris gathers.

    The quick-thinking scrum-half spots a half-gap and squeezes over.
