Harlequins turned on the style to beat Gloucester 32-26 in front of a crowd of 76,813 at Twickenham in Big Game 15.

Dino Lamb got the fourth Quins try shortly after the break before George McGuigan pulled a try back for Gloucester.

Danny Care nipped in for Quins' fifth with 25 minutes left before two late tries earned two bonus points for Gloucester.

First Jonny May went over with nine minutes left before a 78th-minute penalty try after Tyrone Green's deliberate knock-on, resulting in a yellow card for the full-back, denied Ollie Thorley a try-scoring chance and set up an exciting finish.

Harlequins' victory consolidates them in sixth place in the Premiership and they draw level on points with Saracens.

Meanwhile, Gloucester's eighth successive league loss - their worst-ever run in the Premiership - keeps them in 10th place despite their two bonus points.
