Wasps routed in Andy Goode show
Danny Cipriani may be English rugby’s hottest property, but he was upstaged in
this EDF Energy Cup semi-final battle of the Premiership heavyweights by
Andy Goode, an England reject whose once stocky frame earned him the
nickname of “Andy Food” among his teammates. However, this was no disgrace
as Cipriani kept Wasps in the hunt with two spectacular tries, and was only
overshadowed because the new, slim-line Goode orchestrated the Tigers
superbly throughout, unpicking the Wasps defence so effectively that this
victory was much more comprehensive than the four tries apiece scoreline
indicated.
