Saracens won the Premiership with a win by beating Exeter thanks to Alex Goode’s penalty in additional time.

Half-time was even as Theo McFarland scored for Exeter and Exeter got a penalty try.

Before Jacques Vermeulen’s 70th minute try, Elliot Daly & Owen Farrell led Saracens to a 19-10 lead.

Henry Slade’s penalty in the 76th minute looked like it had won it for Chiefs, before Goode coolly slotted and claimed the victory.
