Quins clinch memorable victory

Harlequins recorded a memorable 15-10 victory over Stade Francais in Paris to maintain their 100% record in Heineken Cup Pool Four and move a step closer to qualification for the knockout stages.

The Londoners raced into a 12-0 lead by the 25th minute thanks to tries by Tom Williams and Jordan Turner-Hall, and resisted a brave fightback from the French club to hold on for the win in front of a massive crowd of 76,569 at the Stade de France.

All Stade's points came when Quins scrum-half Danny Care was in the sin-bin, Juan Manuel Leguizamon scoring a try and Juan Martin Hernandez booting a conversion and a penalty. But Nick Evans, who converted Williams' try, kicked a penalty with 13 minutes remaining and some resolute defending in a dramatic final few minutes secured the win for the visitors.
