Florin Vlaicu levels the scores with 10 minutes remaining in the first half, both teams still unable to get the opening try of the game.

Half way the first half and both teams starting well but both unable to break through for the opening try. Florin Vlaicu and Kelly Haimona both exchanging penalties in the opening 20 minutes with Calvisano leading by 3 points.

Calvisano starting off well by putting the Wolves defence under great pressure in the opening minutes of the first half. Bucharest struggling with their discipline after conceding 3 penalties within range of their posts.

The game is off in the Arcul de Triumf, Romania with Calvisano getting the first points of the game through the boot of Kelly Haimona after a infringement at the ruck.

Calvisano have made only two changes to their starting line up from last week with Nicola Belardo replacing Salvetti at blindside and Paul Griffen replacing Marcello Violi at scrumhalf. Bucharest have made 6 changes to their starting 15 from last week with Dorin Lazar and Florin Vlaicu returning from injury.

Good afternoon and welcome to the Ultimate Rugby's coverage of this Amlin Challenge Cup pool clash between Bucharest Wolves and Calvisano. Bucharest were very unlucky not to open their Amlin Challenge Cup campaign with a victory at home to Newcastle last week, after leading the Premiership side at half time. Calvisano were also unlucky to get a win at home to the Top 14 side Brive after a late try from Brive left the Italian side with only 2 points from a draw.
