Duncan Weir snatched a win for Edinburgh with the last kick of the game as Ulster fell out of the Champions Cup spots in the Guinness PRO14.
John Cooney scored the opening try but Jason Harries and Lewis Carmichael responded for Edinburgh, either side of half time.
Ulster piled early pressure onto Edinburgh and worked a fabulous score inside the first ten minutes. John Cooney ran a great support line after starting the move to score under the sticks. Kieran Treadwell created the overlap by pulling the ball behind to McPhillips and, by simply fixing the defender and passing, Ulster scored the opening try.
Ulster’s defensive line speed put pressure on Edinburgh’s attack which forced mistakes. However Edinburgh almost crossed through Villiame Mata but for a great last gasp challenge from Nick Timoney. Ulster survived a period of pressure caused by an irregular bounce of the ball. Edinburgh did score just before the interval. Sam Hidalgo-Clyne made a break and a kick through allowed Jason Harries to score.
