Crooked feed kills the Saints momentum and Tigers can clear.

Call is that the ball is held up in goal. Still scrum five for Northampton, a try now could nearly put the game to bed.

Referee JP Doyle has gone upstairs with the simple question "Try, yes or no?" for the TMO to determine whether or not Sam Dickinson has gone over for Northampton's second try.

PENALTY LEICESTER. Flood measures this effort perfectly and lands an important 3 points as Tigers respond well to conceding the try.

TRY NORTHAMPTON. Alex Corbisiero crashes over the line from close range to put a bit of a gap between the sides. The prop's first try in a Saints jersey will have supporters hopeful of the first Saints win at Welford Road in 6 years. Stephen Myler converts.

Flood misses an early opportunity to get his side back on level terms early in the second half. His effort from half way just fades to the left and wide for his second miss of the match.

Half time here and the visitors will certainly be the happier of the two sides. Aside from the fact that they are holding a 3 point lead, Northampton have played most of the good rugby and have created the only real try scoring chance. Their biggest concern will be the number of penalties they have conceded. Tigers have had the better discipline with the penalty count standing at 10-6. Tigers superiority at scrum time is accounting for a high percentage of the penalty count.

Missed chance for Northampton! Clever kick through from Ben Foden caught the Tigers defence out and as George North came chasing through all he had to do was gather and he'd score. However the ball just didn't sit up for him and the 6"6 winger just couldn't get low enough and he knocked on. Let off for Tigers.

Interesting how Northampton have enjoyed the upper hand throughout the game in general despite being pretty much dominated at scrum time. If they could sort that out it would go a long way towards securing a valuable away win.
