Leicester Tigers record first loss in LV= Cup

Harlequins take their first win of the LV= Cup campaign, beating Leicester Tigers 20-6.

Leicester Tigers have been beaten in the LV= Cup for the first time this season, losing 20-6 to Harlequins this afternoon.

The visitors opened the scoring just four minutes into the game through a Ryan Lamb penalty.

However, the hosts soon took control of the match, with Paul Sackey and Maurie Fa'asavalu both crossing the line before the break.

Quins increased their lead early in the second half when Tom Guest picked off an ambitious Leicester pass, sprinting back for the try.

The result also gives Harlequins their first win of the competition.
