Glasgow come from behind against Exeter

Glasgow Warriors fought back from 10-0 down to clinch a 15-10 win over Exeter Chiefs in the Heineken Cup this afternoon.

Fetu'u Vainikolo managed to give the home side the lead, avoiding a couple of tackles from the Glasgow forwards to squeeze over the line 16 minutes into the contest.

However, Sean Maitland got the visitors back into contention with a try for Glasgow two minutes later, triggering a dominant spell for the Scottish side.

Sean Lamont added a second try for Warriors before half time to give them the lead for the first time in the match, putting them two points in front heading into the break.

A scrappy second half saw both sides make numerous mistakes and struggle to create point-scoring opportunities, with only a Stuart Hogg penalty adding to the half-time scoreline before the end of the match.

The leaves Glasgow with a chance to progress from the pool stage, sitting three points behind Cardiff Blues in pool two.
