Leicester vs Leinster Champions Cup: TV Channel, Stream and Kick-Off Time
Leinster's comeback was powered by two tries and Harry Byrne’s goal-kicking as Leicester remained without points after two Champions Cup matches, officials said.
- On Friday, December 12, Leinster Rugby beat Leicester Tigers 23-15 at Mattioli Woods Welford Road Stadium, overturning a 15-6 half-time deficit in the Investec Champions Cup.
- Changing the front row around the hour brought a scrum penalty won by Rabah Slimani, helping Leinster retake the lead after Jamison Gibson-Park's try and Harry Byrne's kicking narrowed the gap.
- Adam Radwan opened scoring by fly-hacking a loose ball for a try, Ollie Hassell-Collins scored on the stroke of half-time, and Billy Searle missed a 40-m penalty early in the second half.
- The win gave Leinster four match points and moved them to two wins from two in the Champions Cup pool stage, while Leicester remained pointless after two fixtures.
- Leinster's match was hampered by early injuries and a failed HIA for Conan, while tempers flared between James Lowe and Adam Radwan amid a major melee.
