Watch the Match Highlights from the Gallagher Premiership game between Leicester Tigers and London Irish at Mattioli Woods Welford Road in Round 20 of the 21/22 season.

Tigers scored seven tries in a bonus-point 47-28 victory over London Irish on Saturday.

The try bonus point was secured in the opening half, with a fourth score coming courtesy of a penalty try as the Irish tried illegally to stop a drive from the forwards, and Tigers added three more tries after the break to secure the five league points.

The Exiles, Premiership Rugby’s top tryscorers, added to their total in the opening minutes but Tigers responded with four tries before half-time, the latter two coming after Curtis Rona had been red-carded for a high tackle, to lead 26-16 at the break.

After Tommy Reffell added the fifth try, Nemani Nadolo claimed his second of the day and then Chris Ashton added his 90th Premiership score and first for top-of-the-table Tigers against an Irish side beaten just once previously in 2022.
