Toulouse

Where did that come from?

Ulster have a try - Nathan Doak pops it into the hands of Will Addison who crosses the line from close range. Huge roar for the man who missed two years of rugby after a broken leg

It feels like Toulouse could run in another 20 tries here.

It's a superb team move that is finished by Alexandre Roumat 

That's another brilliant try from the French side.

Ramos converts from under the posts

Wow. That's lightning. 

From a turnover, Blair Kinghorn races forward from the halfway line before popping the ball into the hands from Dupont - who crosses the line. 

It's a bonus point for Toulouse 

That's stupid from James Hume - with the ball out of play he shoved a Toulouse player in the back down by the touchline. Gifts possession back to Toulouse via a penalty.

And we're back underway at Ravenhill. Ulster trail by 12 points 

Well, I was going to say the Toulouse had totally outclassed Ulster in that first half - and that's still true but Tom Stewart's 40th minute try has handed the home team a lifeline.

At 12 points behind is there a way back into the game for Ulster? Probably not, but it's lifted spirits round Ravenhill. 

John Cooney converts - and that's the half. 

TRY ULSTER!

And of course it's Tom Stewart.

For the first time in 35 minutes Ulster enter in the Toulouse 22, and after a long spell of possession and a penalty advantage, Tom Stewart wriggles over. Class.

And Ramos makes no mistake this time round 

Well, that was some clever rugby from Toulouse - a mix of power and pace that see Antoine Dupont to cross the line from a few metres out 

A rare miss from Thomas Ramos
