'It was a brilliant reaction'
FT: Saracens 39-24 Lyon
Player of the match Theo Dan, speaking to TNT Sports: "Tonight was a special night for a number of reasons. Over the past few weeks we have had a lot of disappointing performances and results. Last weekend was pretty tough being part of that. We have had a lot of tough and honest conversations this week.
"Our performances have slipped recently and this week was all about bringing our standards back up and making sure we put in a brilliant performance in front of this crowd.
"Lyon had a few runaway tries and this week it was brilliant how we responded to them. Last week Bordeaux scored a lot off turnovers and we didn't respond to them. It was a brilliant reaction."
