Saracens 17 Scarlets 26

Former All Blacks prop Kees Meeuws scored the try which gave Scarlets victory over the Saracens’ second string in their opening EDF Energy Cup Pool D match. 

Eddie Jones made 14 changes from the side which won at Bristol in the Guinness Premiership on Wednesday night.

Young flanker Andy Saull was the only survivor in the starting line-up but the Welsh side, fielding their strongest available side, did not have things all their own way before securing victory when they drove Meeuws over for what proved the decisive score in the 48th minute.

The other Scarlets try came from No 8 David Lyons and Wales fly-half Stephen Jones contributed 16 points with four penalties and two conversions.

Saracens replied with tries from centre Francisco Leonelli and England Under-20 left-wing Noah Cato, both converted by Scottish international fly-half Gordon Ross who also kicked a penalty. 

Saracens (14) 17
Tries: Leonelli, Cato Cons: Ross 2 Pens: Ross

Scarlets (16) 26
Tries: Lyons, Meeuws Cons: S Jones 2 Pens: S Jones 4
