Premiership table-toppers Northampton Saints held on to seal their place in the grand final with a thrilling 22-20 win over Saracens.
Saints advance to the Twickenham final on 8 June against the winners of the Bath-Sale Sharks game, who play on Saturday.Saracens looked transformed from the team beaten at home by Sale on the final day of the season as they put in several big tackles and prevented Saints from getting a foothold in the game, with two Elliot Daly penalties giving the away side a 6-0 lead.
England captain Jamie George then had a try disallowed for offside in a crisp attack moments after Saracens lost Tom Parton to injury, with Alex Lozowski coming on to replace the winger. It was confirmed after full-time that Farrell injured his leg on Monday and passed on kicking duties to Daly, but with their only outside back option already on the pitch it was looking like an uphill battle for the side to turn it round.
