The Rugby Football Union have charged the 27-year-old England fly-half for an alleged tip tackle on Andy Goode in the clash, which Leicester won 19-17.

A report from the RFU's citing officer Shaun Gallagher means the player's case will be heard on Tuesday by a panel at an address in London.

Leicester team-mate Matt Smith has received a written warning from the RFU after receiving a yellow card for use of an elbow on Worcester's Alex Grove in the same game.
