Premiership Cup round-up: Worcester progress to semi finals with

Bath v Worcester Warriors

Billy Searle's boot was the difference as Worcester Warriors were victorious at Bath in the Premiership Cup.

Bath went into the break with a 7 – 0 lead following a try from John Stewart who barged his way over the line in the 21st minute.

However, Worcester came out in the second half at The Rec with Tom Howe scoring a converted try in the 43rd minute of the match to equalise the match.

Billy Searle's boot took the game away from Bath in the second half as he converted two penalties to send the Warriors back up the M5 with the Premiership cup points.

Despite having to bring four players in on loan from Championship outfit Hartpury, the win meant that Worcester progressed to the semi finals to the Premiership Cup.

Northampton Saints v Newcastle Falcons

Teenage scrum-half Jake Garside marked his Northampton Saints debut with a try as they beat Newcastle Falcons in a cross-pool game at Cinch Stadium at Franklin's Gardens.

Luke Frost and Robbie Smith exchanged tries after Newcastle's Iwan Stephens had been denied a 60-metre opener by a brilliant Josh Gillespie tackle.

JJ Tonks was driven over from a ruck as 2019 winners Saints added to Frost's score and 19-year-old Garside touched down from a tap penalty while Falcons were down to 14-men after Smith was yellow carded.

Falcons needed a bonus-point victory to pip Leicester, who beat London Irish on Tuesday, in Pool B, and earned an ‘extra' by adding tries from Smith, captain Pete Lucock and Marcus Tiffen after the break.

Northampton were disrupted by a series of changes, with Garside replaced by Coventry loanee Pete White after 58 minutes, but Reece Marshall and Tom Litchfield went in to keep them out in front as they made it four successive wins in league and cup.
