Youngs hails "massive" Leicester victory

Leicester Tigers hooker Tom Youngs has described his side's victory in the Aviva Premiership final as a "massive" achievement for the club.

The Tigers overcame Northampton Saints 37-17 at Twickenham Stadium on Saturday to win their third title in five years.

"It's massive," Youngs told ESPN. "You get to the biggest stage here and then to win like that - it wasn't great at times but it was fantastic to pull through."

Leicester went into the match against Northampton having lost the last two finals at Twickenham.
