Sale have to work their way back up to the 22 as Saints come flying off the line.

Reinach manages to box kick and Hammersly counters and offloads to Faf who gives it to Dan du Preez. Sale work their way up to the 22.

du Preez goes to Biggar from the restart and Lawes powers up with it.

A strong maul goes down half a metre short. Reinach throws it out to Ludlam who just manages to dot it down with two Shark defenders on him.

Saints may have scored here through Ludlom but the TMO will check it.

Saints drive it.

Penalty against Ashton for the high tackle. Saints go to the line.

Words from the referee and Dan Biggar.

He runs into the Sale 22 and is only stopped by Ashton about 3m short from the line.
