However, Ulster quickly responded with tries from Irvine and Augustus, showcasing their offensive prowess. A red card for Ulster's Sheridan in the second half momentarily shifted momentum, but Flannery and McKee continued to capitalize on the home team's defensive lapses.

The victory highlighted Ulster's strength and tactical execution, contrasting sharply with Edinburgh's struggles.
