More scrappy play, with an Uren box kick going straight up in the air. Benetton knock on the scraps with no one able to claim the ball cleanly. Our scrum!

HT

A perfect way to bring the half to a close, mon Edinburgh!

OH MY WORD WHAT A TRY!!!!!!!!!!!!

BRILLIANT. We switch the point of attack at the ruck, Duhan beats his man and offloads to Goosen who uses quick hands to free Kinghorn, who has the wheels to go the distance! Healy adds the conversion!

Kick is good.

Umaga adds the three-pointer.

Pinged.

Benetton have the momentum after their try. We're pinged at the breakdown, and Umaga calls for the tee.

Benetton try.

We're threatening, but the ball comes loose and Ignacio Mendy pounces. He regathers, and has the gas to go the length. Umaga adds the conversion.

Good pressure!

We use turnover ball wisely, kicking in behind to force a lineout on Benetton's 5 metre line. The Italians will have a tricky exit to negotiate here.

Try chalked off.

Matt Currie dives in at the corner for what he thinks is his second try, but there's a forward pass in the build up. Benetton will have the put in on their 22.

Scrum pen!

The visitors scrum is being found wanting at the moment, with the Edinburgh scrum doing huge work. Healy kicks us deep into the Benetton half with the penalty!

Solid defence!

The men in green are still battering away at our 22, but to no avail, with our defence eventually forcing a knock on! We'll have a scrum on our 22 and a chance to clear our lines.

Defence holds!

Glen Young wins the steal at the lineout and we can clear our lines. The men in green will attack once more though, going through the phases on our 22.

Early tackle

Goosen makes a tackle too early with the ball yet to reach the Benetton player's hands. The visitors kick into our 22 with the penalty.

No try!

The ball was lost forward by the Tongan international! We'll have a goal line drop out.

TMO check

Fekitoa might have scored for the visitors, but the ball has come loose - TMO checking if it's a knock on or happened after the grounding.

Pinged.

We concede a penalty at the breakdown, and Benetton kick into our territory for their first attack of the night. Luke Crosbie is replaced by Tom Dodd for an HIA.

MATT CURRIIIIIEEEEEE!!!!

IT'S TRY TIME THIS TIME!!! The forwards are following their feet, battering their way to the line, but Ben Healy changes the stars and kicks crossfield for Matt Currie to dot down! Healy misses the conversion from wide.

SO SO CLOSE

AAAAAH!! It looks like Langers has scored, but the ball was on the line in the dead ball area. No try. We'll have a scrum right on Benetton's line though, so another chance to attack!

Knock on

The Leoni hold out in defence, and will have a chance to exit.

Into the corner!

The arm is out from the referee after an impressive maul from the Embra men, we go to the corner with the penalty!

Scrum pen!!

HUGE scrum from the big men! We win the penalty on half way, and Healy goes for touch!

Injury stoppage

A lengthy delay as Dave Cherry is down after an injury in the scrum, he's unable to finish, with Ewan Ashman coming on in his place.

BKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!

WHAT A START. In his final appearance at home for the club, Kinghorn crosses the line after a smart move from the backs. GET IN. Healy adds the extras!
