Top Performers as Leinster come from behind to beat Leicester

Leinster survived a scare against Leicester Tigers at Welford Road when they took until  the 72nd minute to all but secure the win. Both the Leicester wingers scored excellent tries in the first half but it was Ollie Hassell-Collins who was the stand out for the hosts with some great micro touches and good defence to add to his well taken try.

Solomone Kata was up there in carries and topped the dominant tackle charts while Tommy Reffell made more tackles than any other player.

Caelan Doris was his usual busy and impactful self while Jamison Gibson-Park was not great but scored the try that turned things for the visitors but it was MOTM Joe McCarthy who stood out for Leinster with his constant ruck pressure, line out and defence work followed up with big carries
