Wasps still in with a chance

Newcastle Falcons, Wasps

A victory for Wasps has kept them in the running for the EDF Energy Cup beating Newcastle 26-13 in a nail biting match on Friday.

After scoring 4 tries and receiving a bonus point, Edwards now has more faith after taking a beating from Leinster in recent weeks.

Unfortunately for England though, Noon was stretchered off in the first half ruling him out for the next few matches.

Missing 2 easy kicks early on in the first half, Cipriani had to make amends and did so setting up Voyce for a try in the second half.

Just 2 minutes into the game Clegg was offered a penalty after a messy scrum and only minutes later, a long delay came with Noons injury and having to be replaced by Dillon.

With 8 minutes left, Clegg put Newcastle back in the running with a converted try taking the scores to 19-13 though Simpson charged through with a bonus point try which Cipriani converted just 2 minutes before full time.

The scorers:

For Newcastle:
Tries:
Vickers
Con: Clegg
Pen: Clegg 2

For Wasps:
Tries:
Sackey, Rees, Voyce, Simpson
Con: Cipriani 3
