Ulster got the upper hand early in the second half with a penalty goal soon after the teams had run out onto the field. But two further penalties in response from Myler and the Ospreys successfully defended the six point lead despite some fierce offensive play from the visiting Ulstermen.

Morris, having taken a well earned try in the first half, was excellent once more in the second half with some crucial turnovers and robust defence. The youngster was deservedly awarded the Player of the Match, leading the charge in what was an excellent bounce back following last week’s defeat.
