Bath end Premiership title drought to deny Leicester legends perfect send-off

Bath 23-21 Leicester Tigers

TWICKENHAM — Bath have ended their 29-year wait for Premiership glory after hanging on to beat Leicester Tigers in Saturday’s final.

    Jack van Poortvliet’s try had given Leicester an early lead, but Bath were ahead 13-7 by half-time thanks to Thomas du Toit’s converted try and two Finn Russell penalties.

    Russell’s interception then led to Max Ojomoh going over, and though late tries from Leicester’s Solomone Kata and Emeka Ilione setup a blockbuster finish, Bath clung on.

    Victory completes a treble for Bath having already won the Premiership Rugby Cup and European Challenge Cup this season.

    Of course it was Finn!

    Defeat for Leicester meanwhile denies Ben Youngs and Dan Cole the perfect send-off, with the two England stalwarts calling time on their careers.

    Tigers boss Michael Cheika also departs after two years in charge with Geoff Parling coming in to replace the Australian for the 2025-26 campaign.
