It's tight at the top of the Celtic League table with just two points separating table leaders Ulster, from second and third placed teams, Gwent Dragons and Llanelli Scarlets.

Ulster ground out a hard earned 10 - 9 win over the Scarlets at Ravenhill with full-back Bryn Cunningham scoring the only try of the game after just 4 minutes.

All the points were scored in the first half of the game and Llanelli answered Ulster's converted try with a drop goal and two penalties before Ulster's Adam Larkin slotted over the final score, a penalty on 42 minutes.

Weather conditions deteriorated in the second half with driving wind and rain ensuring that there were few scoring chances.

Ulster are back in Celtic League action next Friday night against The Ospreys - don't miss it!
