London Irish clinch second Challenge Cup win

Irish clinch second Challenge Cup win

London Irish have secured their second win of the European Rugby Challenge Cup campaign, beating Grenoble 25-15 in Pool One this evening.

After James Hart kicked a penalty for the hosts, the Exiles responded quickly, sending Fergus Mulchrone over for the first try of the night.

Daniel Kilioni was sent to the sin bin for a scrum error inside the opening 15 minutes, allowing Halani Aulika and Alex Lewington to extend the visitors' lead further before the break.

Hart kept the penalties coming to keep Grenoble in contention, kicking five times to cut the lead to two points midway through the second half.

However, Luke Narraway forced his way over to score the fourth try of the night for the Aviva Premiership side, sealing the victory.
