- No complacency despite 29-10 first-leg lead in Champions Cup
- ‘Non-stop’ Steve Borthwick is excelling, says assistant coach
Richard Wigglesworth batted away suggestions that his Leicester teammates must safeguard against complacency before their Champions Cup match against Clermont on Saturday. After a famous 29-10 win in France in the first leg last weekend, they are all but assured of a place in the last eight of Europe’s premier competition.
“It wouldn’t be on any of the players’ lips,” Wigglesworth said of such premature talk. “Steve [Borthwick] has created an environment where anyone wouldn’t dare breathe, hopefully even think about it. We have to attack this weekend.”
