Championship play-off: Worcester beat Bristol to take advantage

Bristol (17) 28

Tries: Eadie, Lemi 2 Cons: Henson 2, Pens: Henson 2, Robinson

Worcester (22) 29

Tries: Betty, Penalty, Vuna, Biggs, Annett Cons: Lamb

Worcester forward Niall Annett's late converted try secured victory over Bristol as the Warriors forged a narrow lead in the first leg of the Championship play-off final.

Former Worcester winger David Lemi scored two tries against his old club.

But Worcester outscored the hosts five tries to three for a victory margin that would have been greater had Ryan Lamb not missed several kicks at goal.

Gavin Henson, who later broke a shin, kicked 10 points for Bristol.

Henson had to be taken off on a stretcher in the second half and Bristol will be without both him and former Wales captain Ryan Jones, who has a shoulder injury, for the second leg on Wednesday, 29 May.

Worcester, who lost twice to Bristol during the regular season, led 22-17 at the end of an incident-packed first half at Ashton Gate which brought five tries, a penalty try and two yellow cards.
