[QUOTE="Bullitt, post: 60788"] 25/3/06 [b]Tigers down Bath at The Rec[/b] [img]http://images.skysports.com/images/sports/live/bath-leicester.jpg[/img] Leicester bolstered their play-off hopes with a 19-12 victory at Bath in the Guinness Premiership. Pat Howard's Leicester side had seven international players back for their trip to The Recreation Ground, and it paid dividends as they came away with the win. England fly-half Andy Goode played his part in the victory as he scored 14 of their 19 points, including four penalties and a conversion. Chris Malone's boot supplied all of Bath's points but it was not enough as Leon Lloyd's try just before the half hour was the only one of the game and aided Leicester's win. Goode had kicked two penalties inside the opening 15 minutes to put The Tigers 6-0 ahead, but Malone answered with two penalties in six minutes to draw Brian Ashton's men level. That lasted just two minutes as Lloyd crossed the line to score, with Goode's conversion seeing the visitors go 13-6 in front. Malone hit back with a penalty after Lewis Moody was sin-binned for Leicester, but Goode responded in kind to see Leicester go into the break with a 16-9 lead despite being a man light. The game was a scrappy affair in the second half and another score did not come until six minutes from time, when Goode effectively sealed the points with his fourth penalty. Malone hauled the home side to within a converted try with three minutes to play, but it was too little too late for Bath. [/QUOTE]
