Premiership: Wasps 32-25 Leicester Tigers

Kearnan Myall showed great strength to score the winning try

Kearnan Myall scored a last-minute try for Wasps to edge out Leicester in a pulsating encounter in Coventry.

Myall barged his way over after Wasps launched a final attack to complete a bonus-point victory in a game where the lead regularly changed hands.

Nizaam Carr scored in the first half for Wasps before Dan Robson and Elliot Daly crossed after half-time.

Tigers built on Tom Youngs' opening try with two scores from Jonah Holmes, but left only with a losing bonus point.

It had looked like Holmes would deliver victory in his first Premiership start for Leicester, as he was freed by Valentino Mapapalangi to score in the left corner before picking off Willie Le Roux's pass to run 80 yards to the line.

But ultimately, Leicester were punished for making one error too many as they slumped to consecutive Premiership defeats.

Wasps showed a far greater cutting edge and climbed to within just one point of the top four with their fourth-straight Premiership win.

The pick of their tries saw Le Roux release Daly who demonstrated his electric pace to finish superbly from 40 yards out.

But it took a last-gasp try for victory, as Myall took Danny Cipriani's delicately-delayed pass to muscle his way to the line.

Wasps director of rugby Dai Young:

"In the last couple of minutes, I always felt there was going to be a winner, either it was going to be a penalty one way or the other because I think both teams were attacking.

"Both teams were probably a little bit loose as in making mistakes really because they are trying to win the game and I always felt there was going to be a mistake by one team and the other team would come out on top really.

"But I felt confident if we could get good position, if we were a bit patient and composed which we weren't for the first 20 minutes."

Leicester director of rugby Matt O'Connor:

"They ripped into each other, it was pretty tight. The difference was probably that we didn't get enough scoreboard pressure in the first 20 minutes when we felt we were probably dominant, we went 10-0 up and we let them claw their way back into the game and that told at the end, we had to tackle a lot.

"They did a pretty good job, they executed, they looked after the ball and ultimately got the last score to get the result.

"I was pleased with a lot of aspects, the effort was great but to win away from home, you have to be more accurate than we were."
