The Steelers are on the attack when van Dyk turns the ball over and goes on an attack before scoring the last try of the match! A great display!

It's a linebreak from Kajimura that livens up an otherwise stagnant game! He runs a good distance to the try line and dots the ball down to extend the Eagles' lead!

After the ball changed possession a few times, it was the Steelers who were able to take advantage of the situation and get Yamanaka to get over the line through all the action!

Eagles receive a penalty and take it quickly. Their tactic works and they are able to get over the line with Mafi getting the five points! A considerable lead now for the Eagles with the Steelers needing a miracle now to stay in the game

We're back underway here at Nissan Stadium

The Steelers have their work cut out for them if they want to compete in the second half. The Eagles on the other hand are relieved of their pressure and will look to simply defend their lead, whatever it takes. Time will tell if they are able to do so or if Steelers can find some points to put up against them!

HT: Yokohama Canon Eagles 34-14 Kobelco Kobe Steelers

Another show of patience from Steelers as they maul the ball over the line! A great display of strength and a good time to score, right before the halftime break!

Eagles react immediately and cancel out the Steelers' try! Kajimura makes a linebreak from an attacking lineout and runs the entire way to the try line!

Steelers get their first points of the match! Lee manages to catch a kick from the Eagles and starts a counter attack. Lee then gave a chip over the top which allowed Anderson to get the ball and go over for a try!

The floodgates have opened here at Nissan Stadium as Eagles score their third try in five minutes! A kick over the top from Ogura allows him to pick it up behind the Steelers defence and get to the try line in style! Another five points to the hosts!
