Belfast Harlequins 13 Lansdowne 3

Belfast Harlequins chalked up their third straight league win over Lansdowne, scoring the only try of the game in a 13-3 success at Deramore Park.

Fly-half Corey Burt nudged Lansdowne in front on 29 minutes from a penalty, but four minutes later ‘Quins scrum-half Reece Spee broke off the back of a scrum to touch down.

Spee's half-back partner Michael Glancy converted and kicked two penalties in the second half.

Three players were sin-binned – Chris Tipene and Gareth Rourke from the home side and Lansdowne’s 6ft 10in lock Devin Toner.

Rourke was yellow carded in injury-time for a stamping incident which preceded a disallowed try for ‘Quins player-coach Andy Ward.
