Harlequins thrash Leicester Tigers

Harlequins score four tries in an emphatic 32-12 win over Leicester Tigers in the Aviva Premiership.

Leicester Tigers have missed the chance to move into the playoff places in the Aviva Premiership after a 32-12 defeat to Harlequins this afternoon.

The visitors were ahead early on as Owen Williams kicked three penalties in the opening 20 minutes to open up a 9-3 advantage.

Harlequins hit their stride before half time as a Nick Easter offload set up Danny Care for a try, before Jack Clifford found the line moments before the break.

The hosts extended their lead further when Marland Yarde sprinted over from 40 metres out to add the third try of the afternoon for Harlequins.

Only another Williams penalty increased Leicester's first-half score, while a late burst from Tim Swiel completed the rout for the home side.

The result leaves Leicester fifth in the table, while Harlequins sit eighth.
