Rugby: Leicester win dramatic finale

A 77th minute try from Dan Hipkiss handed Leicester a 33-27 win over Saracens and the English Premiership rugby title at Twickenham yesterday.

In a dramatic finale, centre Hipkiss barrelled over to give Leicester a second successive Premiership just seconds after New Zealand first five-eighths Glen Jackson had given Saracens the lead.

Saracens have never been in a Premiership final - and had not played a Twickenham final since 1998 - and in the end their inability to close out a big game counted against them.
