    Lyon gave it a good go before Exeter's class and experience took their toll.

    Dylan Cretin

    A nice finish to Lyon's European campaign as they stretch Exeter side to side across the pitch, before flanker Dylan Cretin dives over in the corner.

    Exeter Chiefs 47-20 Lyon

    Exeter will be down to 14 for the last minute after Jannes Kirsten throws a leg out at a Lyon attacker to trip him up.

    Not big, not clever.

    Olly Woodburn

    A delicate chip from Stu Townsend pops up perfectly for Olly Woodburn, who strolls over unchallenged for the seventh Exeter try.

    Exeter Chiefs 40-20 Lyon

    Lyon are trying to run it from everywhere, and Clement Laporte's wild pass over the head of his winger gives Exeter a chance to pressurize again at a line-out.

    Exeter Chiefs 40-20 Lyon

    I can't remember when Lyon last got out of their own half.

    The Chiefs are relentless inside the Lyon 22, but then Stu Townsend gives away a penalty that allows Lyon the chance to run it out of defence and into the uncharted territory of the Exeter half.

  11. Replacementpublished at 19:06 British Summer Time 3 April 2021

    Exeter Chiefs 40-20 Lyon

    Joe Simmonds is limping off, his left foot looks to be the one troubling him. With a likely quarter-final next weekend, that could be worrying.

    Harvey Skinner comes on.

    Exeter Chiefs 40-20 Lyon

    Exeter's European experience is making all the difference now - don't forget, Lyon were 14-0 up early on.

    The Chiefs wreak havoc close to the line, and referee Whitehouse has no option but to award them seven points.

    Exeter Chiefs 33-20 Lyons

    It's messy at a line-out on the Lyon line, but Noa Nakaitaci tidies up.

    Exeter Chiefs 33-20 Lyon

    Joe Simmonds has a simple-looking penalty - but slides it wide of the right post as he looks at it.

    Xavier Chiocci is not straight at a scrum, and is sent to the sin-bin.

    Tom O'Flaherty is back on, sporting headgear to protect that cut from earlier this half.

    Oh so simple for the Chiefs number six, as the Lyon defence crumbles and the flanker dives over from close range. Joe Simmonds converts.

    Home and hosed?

    Stuart Hogg looks to have some blood oozing from his right ear.

  20. Replacementpublished at 47 mins

    Exeter Chiefs 26-20 Lyon

    Exeter props Ben Moon and Tomas Francis are on for the hosts. Francis' hair-do is short at the front, long-ish at the back.

    More like a hair-don't than a hair-do.
