Late Sale penalty try continues Harlequins woes
Harlequins' poor start to the Prem season continues with a third successive loss of the campaign against Sale at CorpAcq Stadium.
Harlequins suffered another disappointing start to the Premier League season with a heavy defeat to Sale Sharks at the CorpAcq Stadium. Despite their early lead, Quins were unable to maintain their advantage and fell to a 17-24 loss. The Sharks emerged victorious thanks to a late penalty try scored by returning player Marcus Smith.
This was Smith's first appearance for Quins this season following a finger injury. The Sharks, who had not been at their best, fought their way back from a tight corner to secure their fifth consecutive win against Quins in domestic and European competition. Before the match, Harlequins had suffered a significant loss against Gloucester, who defeated them 48-0 in the previous weekend's game.
