Scarlets 27-38 Dragons: Two late tries seal Dragons’ first win since October

The Dragons secured their first victory since October with a late salvo against the Scarlets at Parc y Scarlets.

Two tries in the final 10 minutes ended Dean Ryan's side's run of 13 games without a win, while knocking the Scarlets' play-off hopes in the process.

The match couldn't have started much worse for the home - when they were quickly reduced to 13 as Jonathan Davies and Steff Evans were both sent to the sin-bin within five minutes of each other.

The Dragons took advantage immediately after the second yellow, with Jack Dixon powering over from the resultant scrum.

The Scarlets hit back, first through the boot of Sam Costelow shortly after.

And then, some strong carrying from the home side saw Sione Kalamafoni burrow his way over.

To their credit, the away side - winless in 13 - responded well, with patient attack after an Aaron Wainwright break seeing Taine Basham force his way over just after the half-hour mark.

However, with the clock red, the Scarlets managed to find a weakness in a resolute Dragons defence to work Liam Williams over in the corner and head into the sheds with the lead.

It wouldn't take long after the break for the Dragons to forge back ahead. Dixon turned provider this time, breaking through a weak tackle before releasing Jared Rosser to race away.

Their lead wouldn't last to the hour-mark, with the Scarlets scoring in bizarre fashion to retake the lead.
