Ospreys see off Ulster

14/12/2007

Ospreys came from behind to beat Ulster 16-8 in the Heineken Cup at Ravenhill.

Ulster, who were thumped 48-17 by the Welsh side a week ago, led 8-6 at the break thanks to a try from Simon Danielli.

But Ospreys hit back in the second half with New Zealand scrum half Justin Marshall touching down, which was converted by James Hook.

Fly-half Hook also kicked three penalties to guide the visitors to victory.

The result cements Ospreys' place in second spot in pool two, two points behind leaders Gloucester. Irish side Ulster remain rock-bottom with one point from four games.

Elsewhere, Glasgow conceded two tries in the dying minutes to lose 21-14 to Biarritz at the Parc des Sports Aguilera.

The Scottish side, who beat Biarritz 9-6 last Sunday, led for 75 minutes thanks to John Barclay crossing the line while Dan Parks kicked a drop goal and two penalties.

French outfit Biarritz were kept in the game by Damien Traille booting over three penalties.

After Justin Va'a was sin-binned in the closing minutes, the Warriors were stunned by Samiu Vahafolau scoring two quick-fire tries.

The result sees Biarritz go top of pool four while the Warriors slip into third spot.
