81'+623-25 End of second half
81'+623-25 Conversion - Tane Takulua , Newcastle Falcons
80'The flags go up and Newcastle have snatched it! Advantage Falcons in the race for the top four, Leicester's race is run. They will not be in the playoffs for the first time since 2004. Unbelievable.
80'TRY! Boos ring out at Welford Road as after four minutes of deliberations Pearce awards the try. All eyes on Sonatane Takulua's conversion attempt.
80'TRY? Seventeen phases later, the majority on the Leicester line and Ally Hogg thinks he's grounded the ball. We're going upstairs.
79'Leicester's 14 men do well to drive Newcastle back, but the visitors come again..
78'Socino does his job, as he boots the ball to the five-metre line...
78'Yellow card! Kalamafoni is sin-binned after he disrupts Falcons possession in offside position. Fitzgerald is heading off for an HIA too.

68'Player substituted - Dan Cole , Leicester Tigers
67'Two carries from Goneva help take the Falcons into the hosts' 22.

65'Substitute on - Mathew Tait , Leicester Tigers
65'Player substituted - Matt To'omua , Leicester Tigers

61'Substitute on - Santi Socino , Newcastle Falcons

59'Trevor Davison gives away a free kick at the scrum and he and Genge both warned the next infringement will be a penalty.
56'Socino is playing out of position and that kick showed it, an ugly up and under that goes out on the full to hand the hosts an attacking platform.
55'20-13 Conversion - George Ford , Leicester Tigers
54'TRY! Leicester aren't denied for long. Newcastle struggle to deal with the Tigers drive, and with a penalty coming against Graham, Fitzgerald picks up to score after Ben Youngs is denied.
54'18-13 Try - Michael Fitzgerald , Leicester Tigers
53'A brilliant kick from Ford takes Leicester into the corner.
51'Leicester keep the ball in the scrum to try and win the penalty, and they do exactly that. Ford can ease the pressure with a booming clearance.
50'Substitute on - Tom Youngs , Leicester Tigers
50'Player substituted - Tatafu Polota-Nau , Leicester Tigers
49'NO TRY! Newcastle lose the ball inches from the Leicester line and as the ball is booted upfield, Josh Matavesi is unable to gather the wet ball and Ben Youngs races onto it to touch down. However, play is called all the way back to the Leicester line for a pair of knock ons.
48'Goneva takes advantage of another lineout move to take the Falcons into the Leicester 22.
45'Matt Toomua appears to be struggling with an injury.
43'The hosts set the drive but despite the heft of several backs being added to the charge, Newcastle -- and Gary Graham in particular -- do well to force the turnover. Scrum to the Falcons.
42'Leicester win the penalty from the scrum and Ford boots the ball towards the corner.
41'Kalamafoni gathers Socino's kick off and we're back underway at Welford Road.

Hammersley knocks the ball in contact, and Tigers will have the first scrum of the second half.
41'13-13 End of first half
40'It is Newcastle who win the free kick, however, and Young boots the ball out of play to bring an end to an entertaining opening 40 minutes.
40'A big scrum on the stroke of half-time. The Tigers are inside Ford's range and will want to eke a penalty.
40'13-13 Start of second half
38'13-13 Penalty goal - Juan Pablo Socino , Newcastle Falcons
37'This time the Falcons do get their drive going and Scott Lawson makes inroads, aided by Goneva. Following a further phase, O'Connor thinks he has stolen a turnover but Pearce deems he did so illegally.
36'Leicester push the Falcons drive back, but they have done so illegally and we'll have another lineout.
35'Sinoti Sinoti makes a good break on the left wing to take Newcastle into the Tigers 22, and as the hosts slow the ball down Pearce comes back for an earlier penalty. Socino kicks it to the corner.
32'Another scrappy lineout but the ball bounces the way of the hosts and they are on the attack.
31'13-10 Penalty goal - George Ford , Leicester Tigers
29'Calum Green penalised for making contact in the air at a lineout and Ford will have another shot at goal.

25'Socino's first real involvement at No. 10 is to kick the ball out on the full.
25'Hodgson is receiving treatment to what looks like a knee injury. Newcastle will not want to lose a third player to injury in the first half, but it looks as though the fly-half will have to limp off.
25'Player substituted - Joel Hodgson , Newcastle Falcons
25'Substitute on - Juan Pablo Socino , Newcastle Falcons
24'10-10 Penalty goal - George Ford , Leicester Tigers
23'Mark Wilson penalised for not releasing under the posts. Tigers try to take it quickly but referee Luke Pearce calls it back as the kicking tee had already been sent on.
21'Another horrible lineout from Leicester gives Newcastle possession on halfway but as the ball comes wide, O'Connor does brilliantly to get over the ball and force the penalty.
19'Scott Wilson has failed his HIA, and will not return to the action.
16'Telusa Veainu gets the home crowd on its feet as an electric break and offload takes Leicester into the Falcons half. As the play is spread right Ellis Genge adds some heft and a deft touch but it is the prop who later knocks on to give the visitors a scrum.
15'After 16 phases and with Leicester bogged down on the Falcons 22, Ben Youngs passes back for Ford but his drop goal attempt is ugly and doesn't ever trouble the posts.
15'Player substituted - Sean Robinson , Newcastle Falcons
15'Substitute on - Will Witty , Newcastle Falcons
15'Drop goal-missed
13'Big carries from Kalamafoni and Hamilton take Leicester up towards the Newcastle 22.

11'Player substituted - Scott Wilson , Newcastle Falcons
11'Substitute on - Trevor Davison , Newcastle Falcons

7'7-7 Conversion - George Ford , Leicester Tigers
6'TRY! The Falcons defence does well to get back but Leicester keep possession and after going through a few phases close to the goal line, Ford gives it to Manu Tuilagi who pops a pass for Jonny May to slide over.
6'5-7 Try - Jonny May , Leicester Tigers
4'Leicester's turn to have a lineout, and Brendan O'Connor finds a gap in the Newcastle defence.
3'0-7 Conversion - Joel Hodgson , Newcastle Falcons
2'TRY! Off the first lineout of the evening, Niki Goneva finds some space and there is no stopping him afterwards. Dan Cole sold by a dummy there.

The former Leicester wing refuses to celebrate, but his Newcastle teammates are delighted. What a start for the Falcons!
2'0-5 Try - Vereniki Goneva , Newcastle Falcons

1'Hello and welcome to live coverage of Leicester's Aviva Premiership clash with Newcastle at Welford Road.

The Tigers need to win to maintain their hopes of a place in the end-of-season playoffs, while defeat would extinguish them. The Falcons need eight points to be absolutely sure of fourth place, while victory could be enough depending on how Gloucester and Sale fare this weekend.
1'0-0 Start of first half
