Harlequins have gone to the top of the Aviva Premiership table with a 22-9 win over Leicester Tigers at Welford Road.

Toby Flood and Nick Evans exchanged penalties in the early stages before Flood kicked over again to put the hosts 6-3 ahead.

However, Quins landed the first significant blow with 20 minutes on the clock through a Tom Williams try.

Evans kicked the extras to establish a 10-6 lead before Danny Care landed a drop goal to make the score 13-6 to Quins at the break.

Their advantage was stretched to 16-6 at the start of the second period through another Evans penalty and the fly-half put the score beyond doubt with another two kicks in the final 20 minutes.
