Late drama results in draw for Ospreys and Leicester Tigers

Late drama results in draw at Ospreys

An action-packed last 10 minutes at the Liberty Stadium saw Ospreys and Leicester Tigers play to a draw in the Heineken Cup this afternoon.

Tricky conditions saw Dan Biggar struggle with kicking duties for Ospreys, missing three penalties in the space of six minutes in the first half, and a fourth after the break.

A Joe Bearman try gave Ospreys the lead for much of the match, before a Ben Youngs effort tied up the scores with 10 minutes to play.

Niall Morris put the visitors ahead for the first time in the match with a 72nd-minute try, but Ospreys responded, setting up Jonathan Spratt to level the scores once again.

The draw is likely to cost Leicester the lead in pool two, with Toulouse currently beating Treviso.
