Billy Vunipola limps off as La Rochelle overpower Saracens in Champions Cup
Billy Vunipola hobbled away from Stade Marcel-Deflandre on crutches after injuring his knee midway through the first half of this bruising afternoon for Saracens on the Atlantic coast as the Premiership side limped out of the Champions Cup. The bludgeoning power of the champions ensured La Rochelle a home tie with Exeter in Bordeaux and the very real prospect of an all-French final in Dublin next month.
