Cheers rang around Twickenham during the Premiership final between Saracens and Sale Sharks as Tom Curry escorted a protester off the pitch.

There was a brief stoppage in play in the 20th minute as protesters charged onto the famous pitch.

Thankfully, the players and security were wise to it and swiftly dealt with the nuisance.

With the scores level at six apiece, Owen Farrell hung up a high kick before two protesters ran onto the pitch. One of them was tackled to the ground from behind.

The other charged around the Sale Sharks’ half of the pitch before being taken down too.

Sale Sharks’ players Jono Ross and Curry apprehended one of the protesters and helped them off the field, with Twickenham initially booing when they ran onto the field and cheering when they were swiftly dealt with.
