Leicester Tigers edge out Gloucester Rugby

Leicester Tigers record an 11-8 victory over Gloucester Rugby at Welford Road in the Aviva Premiership this afternoon.

Leicester Tigers have recorded an 11-8 victory over Gloucester Rugby at Welford Road in the Aviva Premiership.

Nothing could separate the two sides heading into the interval, with Toby Flood and Robert Cook converting penalties for their respective team.

Charlie Sharples touched down 11 minutes after the break to give the visitors an 8-3 lead, with Cook unable to send the conversion through the posts.

The sides were soon level after Flood failed to convert a Matthew Tait try on 69 minutes, but the 28-year-old made amends by adding a penalty with two minutes remaining to give Richard Cockerill's men the victory.
