Mark McCall delighted by Saracens triumph

Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall admits that he is "delighted" after seeing his team beat Northampton Saints in the Aviva Premiership semi-finals.

Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall has admitted that he is "delighted" by his side's 29-24 win over Northampton Saints in the Aviva Premiership semi-finals.

Owen Farrell kicked over 19 points at Franklin's Gardens on Saturday as Sarries gained revenge for their defeat to Northampton in last season's final.

McCall believes that his side have every chance of being crowned champions next weekend if they continue to perform with the same intensity that they showed against the Saints.

"It was an incredible game but there is one more week to go," he told the club's official website. "If we play like we did today we will give ourselves a shout next week.

"That was us. We made tackle after tackle. Effort after effort. We're delighted."

Saracens will play either Bath or Leicester Tigers at Twickenham Stadium next weekend.
