Edinburgh has surged to the top of the nascent United Rugby Championship table following a commanding 29-12 bonus-point victory over Zebre. The win at Zebre marks the Scottish side's third consecutive triumph in the league.
Despite an early penalty from James Grayson putting Edinburgh ahead, Zebre briefly took the lead with a try from Alessandro Fusco after Edinburgh winger Malelili Satala was sin-binned. However, Edinburgh quickly recovered, with Matt Currie crashing over for a try to retake the lead.
Edinburgh never relinquished control from that point, with Freddy Douglas scoring before half-time. Magnus Bradbury added a third try after the break, and Tom Currie secured the bonus point with Edinburgh's fourth try in the final minute, ensuring maximum points for Sean Everitt's injury-hit squad.
