The visitors were reduced to 14 men just before the interval when skipper Glen Remnant was yellow carded for foul play. Bridgwater took advantage of the extra man and second row Marshall Cormack found a gap to score.

But it was Cambridge who went in to the break 17-10 in front after a Dann penalty which resulted from Soolefai being sent to the Sin-Bin for killing the ball at the tackle. Dann added a second penalty five minutes in to the second half.

Bridgwater full back Andrew George was denied a try in the corner but he finally went over the line after a break by scrum half Matt Ranson. Fly-half Jervis Manupenu, who had missed two earlier conversion attempts, finally found the target.

The home side looked to be taking at least a loosing bonus point from the game for their efforts but then deep in time added on at the end Lombard outpaced the tiring defence to score the visitors third try in the corner.

Shortly after Cinderford against the run of play drew level from a Dings mistake, a mix up between the Dings half backs saw Williams drop the ball and his opposite number Wearne hack the ball and win the race to the line for a try Trigg added the extras to level the score at 10-10.
