Premiership Highlights: Sale v Bath

Sale Sharks edged Bath 6-3 in a wet and windy round 20 Premiership clash. Bath opened the scoring with an early penalty but were unable to extend their advantage, missing the next two kicks at goal. Sale leveled things up with a penalty, with a long range kick at goal going wide just before the break as the sides headed into halftime all square at 3-3. The war of attrition continued in the second half, with tricky conditions hampering any attacking play from both sides. With 15 minutes to play the deadlock was finally broken as Sale slotted a second penalty to take the lead. Bath immediately had a chance to even things up again with a penalty, but it sailed wide. Bath would finish the match with 14 players after picking up a yellow card inside the final ten minutes, with neither side able to add to the scoreline.
