 Quinnell's try almost gave the Blues an unlikely victory |
Cardiff Blues were seconds away from an unlikely comeback win against Bristol. Craig Quinnell's converted try in the final minute put the Blues ahead for the first time, but Bristol's Danny Gray hit an injury-time drop to win it.
Bristol opened up an early 15-3 lead through tries from Vaughn Going and Bernardo Stortoni before Blues backs Craig Morgan and Rhys Williams crossed.
Two penalties took Bristol clear again before Quinnell's try forced Gray to save his side for a friendly win.
