Jarrod adds three points from the tee. 26-20 #GuinnessPRO14
Loose pass in midfield and Steff Evans hacks ahead. It might be the Cardiff City Stadium, but he can't continue to show his footballing skills and the ball is tangled under his feet. Cardiff Blues manage to regain possession in the nick of time. 23-20 #GuinnessPRO14
Very clever from Lloyd Williams to hack through on the blind, and it almost paid off as Adams initially gets boot to ball. However, Elias manages to pick up the loose possession and Hardy clears. 23-20 #GuinnessPRO14
Evans sends a cross field across to Botham who shows great skills to keep hold of it and initially beat Steff Evans and Jon Davies on the inside step. The support comes, and with wing Evans in the breakdown, scrum half Williams shows the vision to go over unopposed. 23-20

Thunderous hit and rip from Razor Rey on Jonny Williams, just as Scarlets were looking threatening on the counter, and the attacks is on. Tomos Williams surges up field, before Willis Halaholo jinks his way through, brought down just short. 8-7 #GuinnessPRO14
Lovely chop from Jarrod Evans on Williams, and the wing is penalised on the floor. Tomos Williams takes the quick tap again and feeds Adams who brings play into the Scarlets' half. 8-7 #GuinnessPRO14
