Sale Sharks ....26
Saracens ........41
SARACENS had to work hard for victory after a fierce opening quarter, but they finished the Sharks of in style with some clinical scoring.
Sale came flying out of the blocks with tries from Lauren Delany Vicky Irwin giving them a 14-0 lead within ten minutes.
Delany hit a flat line at pace to scorch through before Irwin followed suit two minutes later with Lizzy Dufy converting both.
Sarries’ trusty rolling maul got them on the board, with May Campbell getting the touchdown and Zoe Harrison converting.
Saracens were back level...
