Goode guides Leicester home

Goode scored one try, created another and kicked 14 points to book the defending champions a date at Twickenham on April 12 and end Leicester's poor run against Wasps in knockout rugby.
The Tigers had never beaten Wasps on neutral territory, having lost at Twickenham in last season's Heineken Cup final and in the 2005 Guinness Premiership final.
But after working a narrow half-time lead, they pulled clear with tries from Seru Rabeni, the excellent Dan Hipkiss and Martin Castrogiovanni.
Cipriani and Paul Sackey carried the Wasps fight with two tries each - the former's second coming late in the day when the game was already up - and they now face a major battle to qualify for next season's Heineken Cup.
Wasps' only available avenue is through the Guinness Premiership and, currently sixth, they must finish in the top four to guarantee qualification.
The result also marked a sour return to Cardiff for Wasps head coach Shaun Edwards, who only last weekend was celebrating his role in Wales' Grand Slam triumph.
