Challenge Cup Highlights: Edinburgh v London Irish
- 1137
The hosts will be delighted to walk away this evening with an 8 try victory over a strong London Irish side. Irish came out showing great promise early on in the first half getting on the scoreboard after 4 minutes with Tommy Bells kick. The lead didn't last long however with Stuart McInally getting over the line after 7 minutes. Sutherland was binned 20 mins in but Irish were unable to capitalise on that and even managed to get their second try during the ten minutes. Ramson scored Irishes second try after 31 minutes which brought the score up to 12:10 but this would be the closest London Irish would be to getting in the lead and the home side ran away with the lead after that point. The home side crashed over the line two more times in the remainder of the first half. The second half was much the same story with Edinburgh running in 4 more tries and Irish, 2.
