The French side continue to entertain, meanwhile Matthieu Jalibert has been named the player of the match. Very easy pick.

La Rochelle have proved a new team can emerge from nowhere and win Europe. Bordeaux are no strangers having reached the semi-finals in recent years but this performance indicates they are proper contenders.
Saying that, they have just won another scrum penalty.

10 minutes to go and Saracens have another opportunity deep in the Bordeaux 22 but Alex Goode can't find his man.
More madness though from Bordeaux gifts Saracens a scrum.

Into the closing stages and two tries would pinch a point for Saracens. That would be very Sarries.
All Saracens at the moment.

Theo Dan
The hooker intercepts the ball and takes off down the wing. Some set of wheels!
This is helping the points difference alright.

Nick Tompkins (con Owen Farrell)
That will help.
Straight off the top of the line-out and Nick Tompkins hits a great line to go over.

Matthieu Jalibert (con Maxime Lucu)
Too easy.
Off go Bordeaux, first it is Yoram Moefana, who gives Damian Penaud the ball in space, the winger glides around Sean Maitland before handing it over to Matthieu Jalibert to score.
So quick, so sharp, so good!
