Quins' Fans Cry Foul As Yarde Takes A Late Hit

Quins' Fans Cry Foul As Yarde Takes A Late Hit

LEICESTER’S endeavour and spirit earned them an invaluable win at the Stoop yesterday although Quins supporters were left rueing a refereeing decision that possibly cost them a draw and arguably a shot at victory.

At 28-apiece Marland Yard attacked dangerously down the right flank and was legally challenged by Ellis Genge as he kicked. Not quite so legal, it appeared, was a second challenge that followed as Telusa Veainu jumped into Yarde, elbows and knees to the fore and left him sprawling on the ground.

Definite penalty and a shot at goal and arguably a yellow card to boot, as the fans bayed. But no whistle! Tigers counter attacked 70 yards upfield and were then awarded the matchwinning penalty. Such is sport and Leicester will have their own complaints; indeed they were unhappy at the death when the match clock allegedly ‘froze’ and gave Quins a final passage of play.

A wonderfully vivid game simmered for most of the first half before coming to the boil fully, but it was worth the wait as a minor classic emerged.
