Dragons beat Glasgow Warriors at a rain-soaked Rodney Parade to earn their second Guinness PRO14 victory of the season.

Conditions made it difficult for both sides to put any flowing rugby together but two tries early in the second half ensured the Welshmen stayed above their matchday rivals in Conference A.

Key moments

Dragons fly-half Sam Davies got the ball rolling by dissecting the posts for an early penalty before the game went scoreless for the next half hour.

With neither side to get an attacking handle on the game, Davies sent another strike over the upright to extend the hosts’ lead at half time.

And no sooner had the second half kicked off than the first try of the game arrived as Ashton Hewitt produced a moment of quality to break through the middle of the Glasgow defence and race towards the try line, only to be stopped short, where Taine Basham was on hand to finish off the move.

And five minutes later Dragons had their second try with Hewitt adjudged to have enough downward pressure on the ball to secure the score.

Glasgow, having just had a try ruled out, left it until the final minute of the game to get points on the board via a Huw Jones try.

Man of the match

On a soggy afternoon that lacked a spark, Alfie Hewitt came up with a moment of magic to beat the defence for the Dragons’ first try and scored the second himself.

Play of the day

Glasgow struggled to create try-scoring chances but in the final play of the game, Huw Jones collected a pass from Ruaridh Jackson and arced around the Dragons defence to ensure his team did not leave Wales with a zero next to their name.
