Good response by Irish who have just gone close, Youngs getting blocked down at the back of a ruck by Gibson but his pass fails to connect with anyone just short of the line.

Two trys in quick succession for the Tigers who are looking rampant early on. This time its another British and Irish Lion, Ben Youngs, who catches the Irish defence napping to race clear and score. Again Flood cant convert so Tigers lead 13-3, 20 minutes gone.

The early Tigers pressure finally tells, as great hands from Parling puts his newly announced fellow Lion Croft in in the corner for the games opening try after 13 minutes.

The Tigers beginning to show slight dominance, and nearly score the games opening try. Rumbling froward through the pack they eventually fire the ball wide to Mulipola on the wing, who goes over but just has a foot in touch. Irish still under pressure, 10 minutes gone.

The Tigers respond well to going behind, with the pack especially carrying well to get them into Irish territory. Eventually Irish are penalised for straying offside, and Flood levels the scores. 6 minutes gone, Tigers 3 Irish 3.

Lively start to the game by Irish, as they recycle the ball well until eventually Castrogiovanni is pinged for offside. Humphreys step up and makes no mistake to give his side an early 3 point lead.

Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of todays game which sees the Tigers take on London Irish in the Aviva Premiership. The Tigers will be desperate for a win to secure a home semi final berths, while although Irish have nothing to play for I'm sure they will look to come to Welford road and spoil the party.
