Steve Borthwick’s Leicester kept up that winning feeling as they made it a baker’s dozen of victories to head into the Christmas campaign and put a stamp on Europe to add to the mark they have made in the Premiership.
Win number 13 in all competitions did not come easy as the Tigers trailed 17-12 at the break and were forced to dig deep to get their second win in the Champions Cup. But in the end it was done the old Leicester way with grunt up front and no frills.
