  4. '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."

  5. Post update

    FT: Saracens 39-24 Lyon

    Saracens will likely play one of the big hitters in the knockouts as one of the lower ranked sides from the pool stages.

    Lyon make another unforced error. They have been the polar opposite in the second period.

  9. Converted try - Saracens 39-24 Lyon

    Lucio Cinti Luna (con Owen Farrell)

    Job done!

    The ball goes wide and Lucio Cinti Luna is over in the corner untouched.

    Owen Farrell bangs over the conversion from the touchline.

    Cinti scores

    Saracens go cross-field but Rotimi Segun drops the ball.

  12. Post update

    Saracens 32-24 Lyon

    A point was all that is needed but it looks like Saracens will come away with five as it stands.

    What a second half.

  13. Sin-bin - Davit Niniashvili (Lyon)

    Saracens 32-24 Lyon

    The Lyon wing is also off the pitch for some ill-discipline in the lead up to the try.

  14. Converted try - Saracens 32-24 Lyon

    Juan Martin Gonzalez (con Owen Farrell)

    Theo Dan is actually short of the line but Juan Martin Gonzalez picks it up and does get it down.
