Yep. Great start. That line-speed isn't quite matching last week.

Good stream here if anyone needs it. http://wiziwig.ru/rugby/watch-1028852-g ... -racing-92

Clancy very much on RM's side tonight. Swinson held Andreu up in the tackle easily.

Did Gordon commit an offence hence going back to the pen was clancy being a twat? RM are under so much pressure right now.

Picked up from offside or a different incident? Didn't see a replay.

The offside pick up. It looked illegal but I don't know whether clancy whistled for that or he just decided advantage over.

That Glasgow scrum... RM put their big men out to scrum Glasgow off the park and they're being marched back every time. This is the best 40 mins I've seen Glasgow play in a long time bar a couple of missed scores.

I know they haven't conceded the try but that was sloppy before HT... Make it 39.5 minutes.

PS Racing's pack look knackered. They've maybe got another 10 mins in them before they need a sub. Their "plan" needs to start working quite promptly after the half to get back in this.

Well... This seems to be going rather well.

Russell having a cracking game.

Edit to add... G'wan the BT sports hype machine. Russell for the fucking lions.

Naive from Glasgow - protect the ball! Racing look on the verge of capitulation.

Unbelievable. Glasgow are just unplayable when they're on song.

23-0 to Glasgow 47 mins played for anyone who hasn't got a stream. Tries from Strauss, Brown and Price.

I hope the weeg don't sit back, keep the pressure on and that 4th try will inevitably come.

Clancy must feel sorry for RM who are under some unbelievable pressure. Glasgow have rarely put a foot wrong yet I'd say the ref calls are pretty evenly matched.

Phase after phase pressure until Price spotted a wee gap 5m out, he got tackled but with that pace there's no stopping him sliding over. Missed kick from Finn, I thought it was kickable tbh as it wans't too far out.

RM are emptying their bench. Desperate stuff. Weeg on the hunt for the BP win here. Strauss is lining up in the backs for this lineout.

How does that happen? RM aren't even protesting it and are immediately back attacking so he must have lost the ball.

Clancy is just really not a very good ref. Roko loses the ball forward yes but Strauss plays it on the ground back to the weeg. Play should never have been allowed to go on past that point. Simple stuff.

First sub of the game form Glasgow. Pyrgos on. Probably the correct decision - he'll be desperate to put in a performance after that masterclass from Ali Price.

Yet another scrum pen for Glasgow and they can clear their lines.
