Ulster Rugby 29-12 Exeter Chiefs LIVE: Reaction and Semi-Final Highlights
Ulster’s forwards and kicking game produced four tries, while Exeter’s attack stalled after missed chances and a yellow card.
Ulster secured a spot in the EPCR Challenge Cup final by defeating Exeter 29-12 in Belfast on Saturday, earning a place in the May 22 showdown in Bilbao.
Four players scored tries for the hosts: Juarno Augustus, Jack Murphy, Dave McCann, and Tom Stewart, while Nathan Doak added a penalty and three conversions to establish a 10-7 interval lead.
Exeter's campaign unraveled when Immanuel Feyi-Waboso departed for a head injury assessment; full-back Ben Hammersley later received a yellow card, leaving the visitors depleted and disorganized.
Expressing delight with the result, Ulster head coach Richie Murphy praised his squad's clinical performance, while Exeter director of rugby Rob Baxter cited unforced errors as decisive.
On May 22, Ulster will face either Montpellier or the Dragons in Bilbao, with the winner determined by their ongoing semi-final clash.
