How's Leader?

Ultimate Rugby Oct 10

Connacht spill the ball forward in midfield and with that Lacey brings a close to the half. Very tight forty minutes - both sides have come close but neither managing to make an impact on the scoreboard. Penalties have been a problem and slowed the game somewhat. Promising second half to come if both sides can improve discipline.

Yet another penalty, this time in favour of the visitors. Ronaldson steps up and knocks it over to draw his side level. Scoreboard not getting much use so far tonight..

Davies gets a chance to extend the lead when Connacht are spotted handling in the ruck - but he pushes this one wide too. Penalty count really adding up this half - A bright yellow card might be required..

Break in play as Sam Parry is tended too - Concussion test required, so he's replaced by Otten.

Ultimate Rugby Oct 10

Ospreys dominating possession so far this game, but struggling to breakdown a resilient home defence. Rodney Ah You putting his body on the line tonight.

Ospreys currently in the Connacht half, looking for holes but finding none - Connacht defence looking solid.

Connacht penalised for not releasing and Davies finds touch ten metres out. Ospreys set a maul from the ensuing lineout before firing the ball wide. Penalty comes though, two metres out, and Connacht clear their lines.

Powerful shove from the Connacht pack and they steal a penalty against the head - Lacey decides the Osprey forwards collapsed under pressure. Connacht point to posts but Ronaldson's kick drifts wide. Score remains 3-0.

Once again, Ospreys reclaim possession and launch an attack - but once again their penalised - this time not releasing the ball. Connacht Craig Ronaldson kicks to touch.
