PRO14: Ospreys 0 Ulster 8

A Stuart McCloskey try on his 100th appearance guided Ulster to a fifth away victory of the season.and move them up to third position albeit for 24 hours.

The away side started promising putting together a number of phases inside the Ospreys half. The forwards carried hard and looked to soften up the Ospreys defence but ultimately the possession didn’t result in any points.

After Ulster’s possession, Ospreys had several chances to penetrate the away side’s defence. A lovely move from Luke Morgan allowed the former Sevens player some space but slow ball allowed the Ulster to regroup and send the home side back 12 metres.

Ulster returned and almost scored through Angus Kernohan. Darren Cave made the break and quick ball was recycled to the right thanks to a fizzed pass from Stuart McCloskey. With the line at his mercy, Kernohan couldn’t quite gather the ball to dot down over the line.

While on the whole Ulster were fairly accurate in the first half, mistakes in the Ospreys’ red zone punished Dan McFarland’s men. Three knock ons inside the 5m line ended promising Ulster moves and left the scores 0-0 at half time . . .
