The Scarlets would run in a second try to extend their advantage out to 15-3. Zebre kicked a penalty with the final play of the first half to trail 15-6 at the break. A Zebre penalty only a minute into the second half made it a six-point ball game at 15-9. Both sides missed a shot at goal thereafter, but it was Zebre who would go over for their first try 56 minutes in to trail by just a single point at 15-14 heading into the final quarter. Zebre took the lead for the first time in the match with a penalty 74 minutes in, but just two minutes later the Scarlets slotted what would prove to be the game-winning penalty to notch up their second victory of the campaign.
