I'm afraid that is all we've got time for tonight.

While we didn't have a glut of tries, both games were certainly intriguing battles as this Premiership season gets into its stride.

Sale Sharks produced a resolute performance as they beat Worcester Warriors in a scrappy game at the AJ Bell Stadium. 

Danny Cipriani went over for the hosts early on before David Seymour crashed over a second try either side of two Ryan Mills' penalties for Worcester. 

Josh Beaumont bundled over for Sale after the break before Jonny Arr touched down for the visitors. 

However, Johnny Leota made sure of the win with a try in the last minute.

Owen Farrell's late penalty sealed victory for Saracens over Gloucester in a tight affair at Kingsholm.

Sarries led 11-6 at the break thanks to penalties from Charlie Hodgson and Farrell, as well as Mike Ellery's try.

Billy Twelvetrees sent over five penalties in total, and looked to have won it when he kicked Gloucester 15-14 ahead with five minutes remaining. 

However, Farrell kept up the defending champions' 100% start and consigned Gloucester to their first defeat.

A job well done for Sale Sharks, with tries from Danny Cipriani, David Seymour, Josh Beaumont and Johnny Leota rounds off an excellent evening in the north west.

And the hosts think they've grabbed themselves a last-gasp try! To the TMO we go...

Right then, Sale Sharks are giving this a good go for the bonus point with a couple of minutes left, they're into the Warriors' 22...

It's all Sale now and Warriors give away a penalty following a line-out five metres from their try-line.

Danny Cipriani opts not to kick for the posts with all the momentum in the hosts' favour.

Seven minutes to go.

Sale are back on the front foot straight from the kick-off but Warrriors pull off some huge tackles to keep the hosts at bay.

Sharks have the ball where they want it though, inside the visiting 22 with just 10 or so minutes to go.

And that'll be that. The boot of Billy Twelvetrees kept Gloucester in it - but the boot of Owen Farrell handed Saracens a second successive victory.

It's back in blue-and-white hands again now though, the clocking edging towards the red zone...

We're into the final 60 seconds, the Cherry and Whites working their way through the phases inside their own half.

It'll take a big effort from here...

Worcester are enjoying their best spell of the game so far as Ryan Lamb breaks through before he's eventually tackled.

Warriors win a penalty from the breakdown in the corner and opt for a scrum. They need to go for the try rather than the points you feel.

And in the latest episode of this tale of the tee, England man Owen Farrell splits the posts to restore his side's advantage.

Three minutes left now. Another twist, anyone?

But straight from the restart Gloucester have been penalised! How often do you see that happen?

Owen Farrell's turn now...

Wowzers, that is an absolute monster of a kick from Billy Twelvetrees from fully 50 metres.

I mentioned James Hook's last-gasp winner in 2014-15 - has Billy done it this time around?

Five minutes left.

After three or four resets, eventually the referee decides the penalty can go Gloucester's way. Step forward, Billy Twelvetrees...

The game has gone a bit scrappy again with a series of scrums on halfway.

Worcester need to make something happen.

They've got about 20 minutes left to do so.
