George North scores four tries to help Northampton Saints to comfortable win

George North scored four tries as he helped Northampton Saints to a 34-6 victory over Ospreys in the European Rugby Champions Cup this evening.

Stephen Myler kicked the home side ahead in the early stages but Dan Biggar levelled up the scores shortly afterwards.

However, Saints soon opened up a sizeable lead as North grabbed himself two tries before half time and Myler kicked another penalty just before the interval to make it 19-6 at the halfway stage.

Although Biggar narrowed the gap slightly with his second penalty of the afternoon in the 48th minute, North put the result beyond any doubt with his third try in the 55th minute.

He then notched his fourth try of the game late on to make the scoreline even more emphatic and the Saints cruised home to a comprehensive win.
