The Gallagher Premiership final between Saracens and Sale Sharks descended into chaos after two Just Stop Oil protesters ran onto the Twickenham pitch stopping play for just under 10 minutes.
With both sides level at 6-6, the protestors ran onto the pitch throwing orange powder all over the place, with the residue remaining on the field.
As a result there was a significant delay in play as the security guards, aided by England openside Tom Curry, tackled the protestors onto the ground before dragging them off the field.
