Drauniniu leads Warriors to win

Josh Drauniniu scored a hat-trick as Worcester Warriors crushed Rovigo in the Challenge Cup this afternoon.

The Aviva Premiership side scored 11 tries on their way to victory over the Italians.

Warriors raced to a 26-0 lead early in the game, but two late tries in the first half saw Rovigo find a way back into the match by half time.

Worcester were too strong for the home side after the break, adding two quick tries to seal the victory, before Rovigo's defence crumbled, allowing the Warriors to score at will.

Nikki Walker and Max Stelling each scored two tries, as seven Worcester players got their names on the scoresheet.

The victory keeps Worcester at the top of their Challenge Cup pool.
