Glasgow Warriors bag win on road at Sale Sharks' expense
Glasgow Warriors extended their unbeaten start to the new season by pulling away to claim an impressive 47-27 win at Sale.
Glasgow’s winning score might have looked convincing but they only secured victory in the final 20 minutes after Rekeiti Ma’asi-White had temporarily reduced Sale’s deficit to four.
The hosts had made all the running in the early stages and were 12 points up inside the first 10 minutes helped by tries from Ben Curry and Arron Reed.
The visitors hit back through a penalty try and further efforts from Kyle Steyn and Jamie Dobie to carve out a hard-earned 21-15 lead at the interval.
The game looked in the balance until late tries from Rory Darge, Ollie Smith and debutant Otavio Tuipulotu helped Glasgow pull away and wrap up a precious bonus-point win.
Glasgow host Pau in their next Champions Cup encounter while Sale travel to Leinster for a tricky test in mid-December.
