79'Toulon possibly happy with the losing bonus point...
78'Big turnover, Toulon pounce on the ball as it squirms free
77'Another penalty to Scarlets and they have a lineout deep in the Toulon 22. The home crowd want a home quarter final
75'Ashton chips through but is penalised for a push. Patchell clears past halfway after another let off
73'Bread Of Heaven being sung loudly
73'Toulon then knock on at the base of the next ruck and half of West Wales lets out a deep breath

69'Substitute on - Will Boyde , Scarlets
68'Arguably the biggest cheer of the night as Radradra is held up and Scarlets get the put in
