An equally excellent conversion from the visitors adds the extra two points and the final whistle is blown.

The visitors score a well-worked try following the sending off, slick intricate passing creating a hole in midfield for them to burst through and dive over in the game's dying embers. 

The visitors edge closer and closer to the line, each phase pushing them nearer to the whitewash.

Finally, with a mighty collective effort they crash over the line.

After a pair of line-outs on the five-mere, Tigers score their first try of the second-half.

From the set-piece, the forwards are tasked with the most attritional of hard yards, fighting for millimetres of space, edging closer to the line before they finally go over.

Senior Academy star Charlie Myall enters the field, coming on for Phil Cokanasiga. 

The visitors respond in kind, emptying the bench and making wholesale switches across the XV.

A raft of substitutions for the home side, with 11 players entering the field.

As our match day announcer Martin Ballard succinctly puts it, everybody is coming on and, equally, everybody is coming off.

Jordan Olowofela is down after a heavy collision in midfield and he is replaced by No. 22, George Cox.

On the angle, Morgan Bunting confidently converts and adds the extras for Nottingham.

A cracking try from the visitors as wing David Williams, coming in off the right, takes a delightful pop ball from his fly-half and shoots through on a fantastic angle, diving over to score.

Three substitutions at half-time as James Whitcombe comes on to replace James Cronin, Joshua Manz is on for opening try-scorer Emeka Ilione and Mike Williams returns to the Mattioli Woods Welford Road turf as he comes on for Sam Carter.

Atkinson slots the ball through the posts from directly beneath as the half-time whistle blows.

After more great work from Joe Powell, it's James Cronin with a huge break in midfield to start this move off, the prop suddenly in acres of space and just the full-back to beat. 

He opts, typically, to carry straight into contact before Dan Kelly crashes through into space in the move after. 

Tigers lose the ball but reset from the away side's clearance until the ball eventually finds its way back into Kelly's hands. 

This time the centre makes no mistake, plows through the covering full-back and touches down to end the half on a high.

This is a delightful try from Leicester Tigers! 

A backs move executed to perfection, Tigers go the full width, Atkinson sending a flat pass to Mike Brown, the veteran then poking through a perfectly placed grubber kick to the waiting arms of Simmons who can touch down in the right corner. 

With marginal gains across the field, Tigers make their way to within a few metres of the Nottingham line. 

In a subsequent scrum, the referee awards the penalty try.

The fly-half makes no mistake this time, slotting the kick with ease.

The backs have split from a five-metre scrum, and Joe Powell, from the back of the scrum, spots the gaps between the defence and darts over to score beneath the posts.

The flanker opens the scoring tonight with a score in the corner. 

From a line-out Tigers sent wave after wave of one up runners into contact, sending the ball from left to right before quick thinking from new signing Joe Powell puts Ilione into space out wide.
