Glasgow Warriors ended Cardiff's perfect start to the season in a remarkable 13-try thriller at the Arms Park.

The defending champions stunned the Arms Park as Jamie Dobie, Kyle Rowe, Tom Jordan, Sione Tuipulotu and Huw Jones crossed in the first half.

Against all odds, Ed Byrne, Mackenzie Martin and Ben Donnell twice hauled the hosts back into contention after the break following Dan Thomas and Cam Winnett's earlier scores.
