Heineken Cup Semi-Final

So this weekend I cheered on the Saracens as they took on the formidable Toulon in
the Heineken Cup semi-final at Twickenham.

Having been a supporter for many years of the wonderful Saracens, totally not
biased, this was set to be a tough game as Toulon had shown great
form recently and they were determined to make it to the final. 

Let's not forget who their fly half is.... Jonny "drop kick
gorgeous" Wilkinson. No matter the shirt colour Jonny is one of
the best fly half's in the world, as quoted by my housemate, but how would he
fare against Owen Farrell? 



After the cringe worthy Sarries anthem the game started and the
stadium screamed, shouted, gasped and sighed their way through the first half.
The speed of Toulon was mesmerising whilst Jonny's kicks
were faultless. Sarries maintained a strong defence to prevent Toulon scoring
tries and kept a level head despite some bad referee decisions - still not
biased.



At the half time whistle Sarries were on 9 points, but Toulon were
leading with 12. One could only hope that the pep talk by the coach would lead
us to victory.



The second half was packed with near tries for Sarries, but as hard as
they tried no one could stop Jonny Wilkinson's left foot.



The final score 12 to Sarries and 24 to Toulon. Sarries won't
be going to Dublin for the final to play Clermont, but at least we tried
our best and I can rest my vocal chords. 



Man of the match? Why it could only be Jonny Wilkinson.
