The Premiership final at Twickenham has been halt by a Just Stop Oil protestor who ran onto the pitch midway through the first-half.
The individual ran towards the middle of the pitch, where the ball was at the time, throwing orange smoke, but was met with a chorus of boos as the game was stopped. Loud cheers met his exit as security intervened to usher him out of the stadium.
BT Sport's coverage cut away from the protestor and the scene they created as they instead interview Sale's Director of Rugby Alex Sanderson with the game, then, tied at 6-6. Orange smoke remained visible on the pitch after the protestor had left, albeit there was no issue on the green surface.
