It was a 9-9 defensive kickfest for three quarters before a neat backline move off a scrum saw Duncan Taylor break through for the game’s first try. Farrell got the second after unbeaten Sarries were quickest to react after a lucky ricochet - that ended the contest, though Halai got a late consolation. The right team won, though on this evidence I’m not so sure either would trouble Clermont or Toulon in knockout rugby to end the Premiership’s long Euro drought.
