Gloucester v Sharks LIVE! Challenge Cup final latest as Cherry and Whites meet South African side

Mbonambi drives an opponent ten metres back and then Masuku kicks deep into Gloucester territory.

A perfect kick from 30 metres out. They cannot afford to give away penalties with this man kicking.

This is worrying for Gloucester. It was always going to be a big challenge against the South African side's scrum.

For the first time Sharks have the ball in Gloucester's half but a strong tackle gets the Cherry and Whites a scrum.

It is their strength and Nche forced Bamain down. They can breathe and be very happy they survived the first ten minutes.

He slid in to dislodge the ball.

Did he get the ball down or did he lose it? We will go upstairs...

This time Hastings is perfect with a little kick but May couldn't handle the ball. But again there was an earlier penalty and there is another line out on the cusp of the line. This time on the fleft hand side.

11 phases but the Sharks held out as Clark's pass behind the back went into touch, but there was an earlier offside penalty and Fassi now does go off with a yellow card. He could have been off in the first minute. Another line out close to the line upcoming.

Mercer took the line out but the Sharks pushed them into the touchline and now have a line out.

But there was an earlier penalty from the maul and Gloucester will kick to the corner again.

They now have a great chance to take the lead from a line out.

A penalty to Gloucester but it could easily have been a yellow card.

Kick off is not far away now.
