The Tigers led at half-time thanks to a George Ford penalty but failed to score again until Manu Tuilagi’s 75th-minute converted try.

Ulster pushed late on for the bonus point score but were unable to get it - the only sour note on an otherwise triumphant opening round.

Meanwhile, a late penalty try saw Racing home in their opening round game against Scarlets.

A collapsing maul saw referee Matthew Carley award the try as Racing beat their Welsh counterparts by a single point - 14-13.
