700 Edinburgh fans at Murrayfiel­d but little to cheer as Glasgow win

-

An occasion that was most notable for the novelty of paying supporters in a sports stadium for the first time in Scotland since the coronaviru­s shutdown, Danny Wilson left celebratin­g his first win as Glasgow coach as they ran out 15- 3 winners over Edinburgh at BT Murrayfiel­d.

Tries from skipper Fraser Brown and wing Ratu Tagive sealed the victory in the last round of the interrupte­d Guinness Pro14 season. Edinburgh now look ahead to a home semi- final at home to Ulster next Saturday.

Brown said: “It was probably important in how we build into the new season, which starts in five weeks.”

Edinburgh coach Richard Cockerill added: “We are going to try and win the tournament but we know Ulster are a great side. Tonight was a pretty poor game full stop.”
