Warriors rue slow start

Holland Bogan led from the front for Glasgow
Glasgow Warriors were left to rue a slow start as Clovers edged a entertaining Celtic Challenge contest 38-31, despite a strong late fightback that earned the hosts two bonus points.

Clovers struck early to build momentum, but Glasgow showed their resilience when Emily Coubrough powered over from a scrum to get on the scoreboard. The visitors, however, capitalised on key moments before half-time to open up a lead, punishing a turnover to stretch the gap heading into the break.

The restart proved difficult for Glasgow as Clovers added another score to move 31-12 clear, but that only sparked a spirited response from the Warriors. Holland Bogan crossed on the break, Millie Warren followed with another well-worked try, and a penalty try soon after dragged Glasgow right back into contention.

Clovers steadied late on with another converted try to regain control, but Glasgow had the final say. Briar McNamara's try in the dying seconds ensured the home side were rewarded for their persistence, taking valuable bonus points after an entertaining, high-scoring battle at Scotstoun.
