Leicester Tigers staged a second-half comeback to defeat Sale Sharks 34-13 at Edgeley Park.
The Tigers went ahead after ten minutes when England international Toby Flood successfully kicked a penalty.
However, two quick penalties by Nick Macleod put the Sharks in the lead before Tom Brady's try gave the hosts a 13-3 half-time lead.
Leicester began their turnaround on 50 minutes when Flood kicked over another penalty before Alesana Tuilagi's try, converted by Flood, levelled the score.
Martin Castrogiovanni's try two minutes later put the visitors ahead before Flood scored a try of his own to extend his side's lead.
A Marcos Ayerza try ten minutes from time capped a flurry of second half tries for Leicester to earn them the win.
