Moseley had not played at Twickenham since 1982

Moseley won the EDF Energy National Trophy final with a shock victory over National One champions Leeds Carnegie at Twickenham on Saturday.

Dan Norton and Andy Binns both scored first-half tries, with Tristan Roberts converting both and scoring a penalty to give Moseley a 17-6 half-time lead.

Carnegie rallied after the break and captain Mike MacDonald gave them hope with a 67th-minute try.

An Ollie Thomas drop goal sealed the win before Kearnan Myall's consolation.
