Leicester head coach Geoff Parling felt his side recovered well from ‘not throwing a punch’ early on as they fought back to defeat Gloucester at Mattioli Woods Welford Road.

Leicester Tigers head coach Geoff Parling has warned his team to stop their habit of slow starts despite overcoming an early deficit to beat Gloucester at Mattioli Woods Welford Road. Leicester fell behind 14-0 within the opening 10 minutes following tries from Jac Morgan and Dian Bleuler, but they rallied with 31 unanswered points to secure their second consecutive Gallagher Premiership victory.
Finn Carnduff, Joe Heyes, and Jamie Blamire crossed before halftime to swing the lead to Leicester, with Aaron Wainwright and Ollie Hassell-Collins adding tries to secure the win. Gloucester claimed two losing bonus points through late scores by Will Trenholm and Jack Innard.
