An own Try? Leicester Tigers all but scored a try for Saints

Leicester Tigers produced what can only be described as a rugby 'own goal' in their loss to the Northampton Saints.

The Tigers took a lineout, 5m from their own line, quickly which resulted into a turnover and ultimately the bonus-point clinching try for Northampton Saints.

“It’s an own goal Lawrence,” said BT Sport commentator Ugo Monye.


The Saints marched on to claim a comprehensive 36-13 victory despite losing Owen Franks, Courtney Lawes and Dan Biggar before kick off.
