Saracens 9-9 Leicester Tigers

Saracens come back from 9-0 down to draw 9-9 with Leicester Tigers at Wembley.

Saracens and Leicester Tigers have drawn nine all in an uneventful match at Wembley.

In a match dominated by missed opportunities, Leicester took a 9-0 lead within half an hour with three Toby Flood penalties.

Flood's England rival Owen Farrell failed to deliver in the early stages, missing a number of kicking opportunities as Leicester went into half time 9-3 up.

In the second half, Saracens bought on the experienced Charlie Hodgson, who managed to impose some control and pulled the game back to nine-a-piece.

Toby Flood wasted an opportunity to regain the lead for Leicester, missing a kick at goal with 11 minutes remaining.

Saracens set Charlie Hodgson up for a drop goal with three minutes remaining but Leicester pressure forced Hodgson to slot wide.

The Saracens appeared to have more to give in the final stages but, in spite of a late Toby Flood drop-goal attempt, the game ended in a 9-9 draw.
