  1. The teams are back out...

    HT: Exeter 20-14 Wasps

    Right then, the teams are back out on the pitch at Sandy Park, so let's get this second half moving...

  2. An update on Tuilagi

    FT: Leicester 44-17 Saracens

    Manu TuilagiRex Features

    Leicester Tigers director of rugby Richard Cockerill has been updating us on the fitness of England centre Manu Tuilagi, who went off during the first Premiership semi-final at Allianz Park.

    "He's pulled him hamstring so I don't know how bad that is yet," said Cockerill "If the first Test is the 11 June it's not very far away. We'll have to see but it's not ideal for anybody, is it?" 

  3. Elsewhere on BBC Sport...

    HT: Exeter 20-14 Wasps

    Away from the rugby union at Sandy Park, we could scarcely have a more eclectic range of sports to bring you on BBC Sport this afternoon.

    We'd prefer you stick with us, of course, but here's what else is going on right now...

  4. 'A ding-dong battle'

    HT: Exeter 20-14 Wasps

    Brent Pilnick
    BBC Sport at Snady Park

    "What a ding-dong battle that was. Exeter may be on top in terms of territory and possession, but it's certainly not over yet.

    "Let's not forget that the Chiefs had a bigger lead at Wasps last month in the Champions Cup quarter-final and threw it away."

  5. A second-half team?

    HT: Exeter 20-14 Wasps

    Caught your breath yet? No, me neither. And here's a tidy little stat to get your heads around too...

  6. Half-time

    And that brings to a close a chaotic, topsy-turvy first 40 minutes of rugby at Sandy Park. As things stand, Exeter Chiefs are heading for a Twickenham final date with European champions Saracens.

    Six points separate the teams.

  7. Exeter 20-14 Wasps

    This game has had everything. An absolutely fascinating first 40 minutes as Wasps showed what they can do with the ball and they've improved no end since we last saw them. Everything to play for.

  8. Sin-bin (Festuccia)

    Exeter 20-14 Wasps

    Carlos Festuccia is shown yellow and will subsequently miss a good chunk of the second half. How big a moment could this end up being?

    At last Exeter are rewarded for their attacking play, as Greg Garner loses patience with the Wasps defence, heads for the posts and puts the whistle to his mouth. A penalty try for the hosts.

    Gareth Steenson adds the extras, as Garner marches over to Carlos Festuccia, who may be penalised even further here...

  10. Exeter 13-14 Wasps

    James Haskell is penalised at the breakdown, however, and so Exeter pop the ball into touch.

    The rolling maul is full steam ahead once more... And another penalty!

    James Haskell is summoned by referee Greg Garner, but his cards are remaining firmly in his pocket for now.

  11. Exeter 13-14 Wasps

    The consolation for the Chiefs is, at least, that the first of those knock-ons came from a Wasps hand, which means it'll be an Exeter scrum.

    They secure the ball and are two metres short of the line...

  12. No try

    Exeter 13-14 Wasps

    A little unlucky, is that. The trouble all came from Henry Slade's kick, which held up just short of the Wasps line and forced full-back Charles Piutau to try to wriggle his way clear.

    He was promptly pounced upon and the ball turned over, but two marginal knock-ons mean the score won't count.

  13. Try review

    Exeter 13-14 Wasps

    And it may well have led to a try from Don Armand! To the TMO we go...

  14. Exeter 13-14 Wasps

    Wasps are on the attack once more, Dan Robson again at the heart of it breaking the first tackle and streaking clear down the Exeter left.

    But it amounts to nothing and now Henry Slade's long kick forward has put the visitors in all sorts of trouble...

  15. try

    Try (Robson, con Gopperth)

    That's a really fine try from Wasps, thanks in part to some terrific interplay from the forwards which takes them 20 or 30 metres upfield.

    Dan Robson is then sharp at the base of a ruck, looking to spread the play wide but then sniping in around the side to slide over from close range.

    Jimmy Gopperth's extra two edges Wasps ahead once more.

  16. Exeter 13-7 Wasps

    The television cameras have picked up a nasty little kick to the head by Exeter scrum-half Will Chudley on England and Wasps man Joe Launchbury at the breakdown. A bit lucky to escape that one without sanction? Perhaps.

    Meanwhile, Wasps boot a penalty into touch to earn field position on the far side as we watch on.

  17. Exeter 13-7 Wasps

    You wouldn't think that conditions here are pretty miserable. We've seen two cracking tries and some good rugby so far.

  18. Exeter 13-7 Wasps

    Both teams, to their credit, are still trying to play rather than kicking and clapping - though there's been a wee bit of that too.

    Wasps have the ball on halfway... Until Exeter turn it over, that is. This looks an even contest.

  19. Exeter 13-7 Wasps

    Goodness me, Phil Dollman is playing with fire as he dances around a couple of tackles just metres from his own line, before Will Chudley's pass goes straight out of play on the Chiefs right.

    The rain is really belting down now, as well. Not a pleasant day for free-flowing rugby.

  20. Exeter 13-7 Wasps

    Well done, Exeter. They've come back well from that little setback. It was a good line-out and instead of feeding the ball to the usual receiver Gareth Steenson they fed it to Jack Nowell.
