[score][team1]Scarlets[/team1][score1]24[/score1][team2]Ulster[/team2][score2]25[/score2][/score]Ireland star Jacob Stockdale produced another try-scoring performance as Ulster put a huge hole in Scarlets' Heineken Champions Cup hopes. Stockdale, whose touchdown helped Ireland beat world champions New Zealand last month, struck in the first half at Parc-y-Scarlets to underpin a 25-24 bonus-point victory. The teams meet again in Belfast next Friday, and all the momentum is with Ulster, whose remaining Champions Cup fixtures also include a potentially-pivotal home clash against Racing next month. Ulster, meanwhile, included Stockdale, Addison and their Ireland Test colleagues Rory Best and Iain Henderson, with Best captaining the team. Ulster attacked from a scrum inside their own half, with Addison easily rounding Scarlets and Wales centre Jonathan Davies, before possession found its way to Stockdale, who showed his class in blistering fashion.
