At the resulting line out from that penalty, Johann Muller is penalised for pulling down the line out. Ruan Pienaar has a chance in the final play of the half to reduce Ulster's lead.

Another penalty given away by Ulster. This time from Luke Marshall. Montpellier go down the line and look to end the half on a high.

With about 2 minutes remaining of the half Ulster lead 17-10. Benoit Paillague has come on for Enzo Selponi who looks to be in some discomfort.

Good kick Pienaar from about 47 metres out. Ulster now take a 7 point lead.

Ulster win a penalty after Montpellier offside at the line out. Ruan Pienaar opts for posts.

Sloppy game by both sides

Try Montpellier! Just as they were looking to be on the end of a hammering from Ulster they've fought back with a try of their own. The attack starts after Charles Geli breaks, the hooker does excellent to make a few yards. Then Eric Escande picks of the back of the ruck and pops to Robins Tchale Watchou who darts over in the corner. Conversion is good from Escande and now Ulsters lead is reduced to 4 points.

Ulster have been warned by Barnes about giving away penalties at the breakdown. This time Nick Williams gives away the penalty. Montpellier go for touch.

Try Ulster! What a 3 minutes for Ulster. The home side retain possession of the kick off, Pienaar chips over the top and the back line chase, Lucas Dupont crumbles under the pressure and Pienaar is there to collect the ball and dives over. He converts his own try and Ulster now lead 14-3.

Ruan Pienaar splits the posts with the conversion. Ulster lead 7-3.
