A consolation try by Glasgow on the last play of the game at Nationals yesterday achieved what was considered by many to be a fair result.

By far the most exciting and well-contested game of the tour, Glasgow gave Teachers the respect they deserved by playing their strongest team.

Early in the game, Glasgow taught the Teachers forwards a lesson in rucking by driving hard as a pack.

Teachers fumbled the majority of their line-out ball, which allowed the Glasgow backs to pressure their opposite numbers.

Scott Correia's tackling was a major feature of Teachers' defence, with Butch Robinson providing the supplementary force in this facet of the game.

The early exchanges between the forwards was fierce with Glasgow getting the edge. The combination of scrum-half Andrew Correia and his back row provided a steady stream of ball for the speedy Teachers backs, outside-half Gary Kelson returning after a five-year absence.

After 10 minutes, Andre Simons was on target with a penalty for the first score of the game. Midway through the half pressure form Andrew Correia and his back row provided Patrick Cooper with a well-earned try to bring the half-time score to 8-0.

In the second half, Teachers emphasised their superiority in the backs by creating an 80-yard try. Andrew Correia ran on the blind side after a maul, fed Robinson who ran outside his opposite number for 30 yards and passed to the ever-present Cooper.

Cooper then fed the final pass to Simons to score under the posts and his conversion made it 15-0.

In the dying minutes, Paddy Radcliffe scored in the corner after a quick distribution following a penalty.

BREAKING AWAY -- Teachers' Andre Simons, right, eludes this Glasgow University tackler during yesterday's tour match at National Sports Club. Teachers won 15-7.
