Ulster's United Rugby Championship play-off hopes are no longer in their own hands after a heartbreaking 26-22 defeat by Glasgow Warriors in their final regular season game. The result leaves Ulster relying on Saturday's outcome between Munster and the Bulls to secure a post-season spot.

Zac Ward emerged as Ulster's standout performer with two spectacular tries - the first a 40-metre individual effort after picking a pass from Michael Lowry, then an interception from inside his own twenty-two. However, Glasgow's British and Irish Lions centre Sione Tuipulotu controlled the game throughout, pulling the strings that unlocked Ulster's defence.

George Horne's late try and conversions proved decisive, while Kyle Rowe's bonus-point try in the final minutes sealed Glasgow's victory. Ulster now must watch and wait as their season hangs in the balance.
