Webster pounces late as Edinburgh edge out Castres

Edinburgh 24 Castres22

Simon Webster capitalised on a mistake to score the decisive try as Edinburgh claimed a 24-22 victory, their first in Pool One after narrow losses to Northampton, Cardiff Blues and last week’s 21-16 reverse in Castres.

The match was postponed for 24 hours due to snow and ice and played in front of an empty 67,000-seat stadium, and Moffat praised the performances of both teams in difficult circumstances.
