• Saracens 56-27 Glasgow
• England’s leading club secure Munster meeting
It duly turned out to be a repeat of the Calcutta Cup, but the 2017 version when England cut loose at Twickenham rather than this month’s Scottish revival. Saracens dominated after conceding an early try and will face Munster at the Ricoh Arena in the semi-final on 20 April.
Glasgow scored after 70 seconds from a lineout just inside Saracens’ half. They moved the ball quickly left and Stuart Hogg drew David Strettle, a late replacement after Owen Farrell withdrew from the side when his wife went into labour, to free Rory Hughes who fed Ali Price with a quarter-back style inside pass.
