Ulster show real ability to keep bid on life support

Ulster delivered their first win of their European Champions Cup campaign at a vital time in their bid to avoid early elimination with their try bonus victory moving them off the bottom of Pool Three and setting them up nicely for Sunday week's return fixture at the Scarlets.

First-half tries from Darren Cave and Ruan Pienaar - who was making his first appearance of the season in an Ulster shirt and also ended up sin-binned late on - were supplemented by scores in the second 40 minutes by Tommy Bowe, with skipper Rory Best delivering the bonus try.
