Great try from Nick Evans. He spots a few forwards in the defensive line who were only to happy to buy his dummy and then wrongfoots Arscott to score. Weak defence by the full back but a great change of direction from the kiwi.

We are getting the full repetoire of Cipriani's passing game as he throw as nice skip pass to Arscott in their own 22, but the full back shanks it into touch.

Nothing comes from the attack as Sale are able to hold up the Quins maul.

Quins get a penalty after Wayne Barnes felt the Sale players recklessly used the boot on Danny Care at the ruck. No cards, but looked harsh as Care was slowing the ball down.

Not a great start for Dave Ward, he gave away a penalty in an attacking position and his first lineout wasn't straight. Scrum to Sale.

Quins win a penalty from the scrum and will have the lineout near halfway.

Sale had another good chance and were mauling towards the line in the Quins 22 but the visitors held it up and forced the turnover.

Try for Sale and it was a beauty. Cipriani executes the classic Leinster loop around and finds Arscott with a delicious flat pass. Arscott could have gone himself but feeds Miller for the try in the corner. 5-0 Sale and they are playing nice rugby so far.

Cipriani controlling the game at the moment. Sale have a lineout in the Quins 22.

Harlequins now have a good spell and bring the ball up to the Sale 22 but hooker Dave Ward gets penalised for coming in the side and Sale have the penalty.
