Exeter and Racing 92 were both attempting to lift their first Champions Cup title
Heineken Champions Cup final: Exeter (21) 31 Tries: Cowan-Dickie, S Simmonds, Williams, Slade Cons: J Simmonds 4 Pen: J Simmonds Racing 92 (12) 27 Tries: Zebo 2, Imhoff, Chat Cons: Russell, Machenaud Pen: Machenaud
Exeter Chiefs had just enough to keep Racing 92 at bay and clinch their first Heineken Champions Cup title in a thrilling final at Ashton Gate.
Luke-Cowan Dickie, Sam Simmonds and Harry Williams barged over to give Exeter a nine-point lead at the break.
But Racing roared back with Simon Zebo's second try and Camille Chat's surge bringing them within a point.
Exeter, down to 14 men after Tomas Francis' late yellow card, held out heroically to lift the title.
A breathless final 10 minutes featured Racing turning down the drop-goal opportunity as they went through the phases within five metres of the line, Exeter replacement Sam Hidalgo-Clyne securing a turnover under the shadow of his own posts and captain Joe Simmonds landing a penalty with the last act of the match.
Even then the drama was not over.
The match clock initially showed that three seconds remained for Racing to restart and mount a final assault. However, after consulting with his team officials, referee Nigel Owens confirmed that the clock had not restarted when Simmonds was lining up his penalty and that he could blow up, sparking delirious celebrations.
The victory marks the culmination of a remarkable decade for Exeter, who won promotion to the Premiership for the first time back in 2010 in a play-off match across Bristol at the city's Memorial Stadium.
Rob Baxter's side will attempt to complete a double next weekend when they take on Wasps in the Premiership final.
Business-like Exeter v free-running Racing
Racing emerged for kick-off in the pink bow-ties that are a club tradition
The clash of styles was clear as soon as the teams emerged into a coronavirus-enforced empty Ashton Gate.
Racing 92 trotted onto the pitch wearing pink bow-ties, in a nod to the Parisians' fast-living free-running past.
Exeter marched out in business-like fashion, grim-faced and forward looking, through a gauntlet of their replacements and backroom staff.
Racing brought bursts of colour and panache, but the Chiefs' mastery of close-range trench warfare ultimately kept them one step ahead throughout a thrilling contest.
Racing scrum-half Teddy Iribaren had the chance to give his side an early platform. Instead he screwed a penalty dead as he aimed for the corner and five minutes later Cowan-Dickie forced his way through the middle of a driven maul for the first try.
Iribaren's eccentricities continued as he passed blind to put Juan Imhoff under pressure before Russell juggled in his own in-goal area. Racing put themselves under pressure and Exeter gleefully pressed them beyond breaking point.
Sam Simmonds barged through opposite number Antonie Claassen at the end of a series of short-range bursts from his fellow forwards.
Fourteen points ahead with only 16 minutes gone, Exeter chairman Tony Rowe looked like he was struggling to keep his delight in check in the stands.
But Racing refused to go quietly.
Russell's cut-out pass tempted Tom O'Flaherty out of position and opened a route to the corner for Zebo before Imhoff ghosted through the fringe defence to cut the gap to two points.
Harry Williams crossed on the stroke of half-time for Chiefs but Zebo, out of contract next summer, showed his quality with another powerful finish to keep the French side within a score early in the second half.
Ultimately though, Racing's errors undermined their brilliance.
Two minutes after Zebo's second, with the momentum with the French side, Scotland fly-half Russell threw a looping mis-pass just outside his own 22m. It could have sprung a counter-attack. Instead it was picked off by an alert Jack Nowell who put Henry Slade under the posts.
That score moved Exeter to 28 points, a total Racing could never overhaul despite Chat's bulldozing try and their late pressure.
Russell's percentages come up short
Russell's brilliance helped create a late semi-final winning try against Saracens
British and Irish Lions coach Warren Gatland was one of the handful of spectators in attendance at the behind-closed-doors final.
The performance of Russell will have given him plenty to ponder.
The Scotland fly-half's brilliant chip created a dramatic late score that undid defending champions Saracens in the semi-final and there were moments of vision and precision against Exeter.
However, his high-risk, high-reward game means costly errors are also inevitable. Even before his pass was intercepted for Slade's try, his juggle behind his own line had almost gifted Exeter a score in the first half.
Will Gatland feel he can afford that trade-off in the white heat of a Test series against world champions South Africa next summer?
Man of the match - Jonny Hill
Second row Jonny Hill's Herculean performance included 16 tackles - more than any other Exeter player
Reaction - 'the best team in Europe by some distance'
Former England scrum-half Matt Dawson on BBC Radio 5 Live: "It's an amazing achievement for Exeter. There can't have been another winning team that have only been in the top flight of their league for 10 years. And they deserve it because they have been the best team in Europe by some distance.
"I don't think I've seen a final like that - they tend to be more cagey. When a team goes as far ahead as Exeter did you think this is a one-way show, but it was Exeter who were hanging on at the end.
"Sport does some strange things to your emotions and there was massive tension and drama even in an empty stadium."
Former England centre Jeremy Guscott: "Well done Racing for coming back into the match but the difference was that Exeter are a team whereas Racing have individuals. Exeter finished the match with 14 players on the field but backed themselves in a defensive position and have won it together."

A 100-year-old man has been reliving his holidays by painting them during the pandemic.
Leslie Posnett lives alone in sheltered accommodation in Leicestershire and coronavirus restrictions have meant he has had few visitors.
But the World War Two veteran has kept himself occupied by recreating paintings from his old sketch pads.
A selection of his work has been entered into a virtual time capsule organised by Leicestershire County Council to teach future generations about the pandemic.
“When I get started on a painting it’s something I get lost in,” Leslie said.

Covid lockdown: Wales' businesses divided over circuit-breaker Published 18 October 2020
Image source, Sarah Baker Image caption, Cafe owner Sarah Baker said adapting to change without notice was the main challenge for businesses.
Businesses across Wales are "struggling to plan" as talks continue over a "fire-break" lockdown.
The Welsh Government said a decision was likely to be made on Monday over a short, limited lockdown lasting at least two weeks to slow down the virus.
Discussions between health officials, scientific advisors and councils are being held this weekend.
While some businesses said everyone should "be in the same boat", others disagree.
Sarah Baker, owner of the Lot 11 cafes in Mold, Flintshire, and Wrexham, said the hardest thing for businesses was "trying to adapt to everything".

"The public look to us for answers and ring us to ask what they should be doing. But we get told the same time as everybody else," she said.
"Some days I think 'yes let's just have a full-on lockdown for three or four weeks and come out the other side'. The other side of me thinks 'let's learn to live with it and be as vigilant as we can'."
In the meantime, she is waiting, along with the rest of Wales, for the Welsh Government's decision.
"If it happens does it mean we have to close or be takeaway only? We're waiting for the call to see what we can do."
Image source, Gareth Burns Image caption, Gym owner Gareth Burns says the mental health of his customers could suffer if he has to close
'I 100% disagree'
Gareth Burns, who runs N-Mac Gym and The Castle Vaults pub in Newtown, Powys, said he understood arguments to close or restrict pubs because "it's very hard to control people under the influence".
But when it comes to closing gyms, he said: "I 100% disagree. We have about 400 members and some of them almost had mental breakdowns the last time we closed for lockdown. They rely on the physical exercise, but also community.
"The people I'm concerned about is the people aged 18 to 60-years-old at my gym - the government is forgetting about them and focusing on protecting the 85-year-olds. There should be a compromise for both."
He added local lockdowns should remain instead of a national "fire-break".
"I don't see why rural mid Wales should be punished. What's quite concerning for businesses is that we can't plan."
Image source, Alison Ball Image caption, Businesswoman Alison Ball questioned whether the circuit-breaker would work
'There should've been one rule for the four nations'
Alison Ball, of Alison's Clothing Alterations in Denbigh, said: "I think they should carry on with local lockdowns. They should have closed the border between England and Wales at the start.
"It's hard for the government to make decisions but is a circuit-breaker going to work?
"I think they should've had one rule for the four nations instead of competing against each other."
Image source, Lottie Dixon Image caption, Florist Lottie Dixon says all counties should be "in the same boat"
'It's fairer to all be in the same boat'
Lottie Dixon, 31, who owns The Bloom Room florists in Monmouth, said: "The difficulty for me is planning anything.
"I've got a wedding booked for next Saturday and the bride is terrified she's not going to get married - she's already had to cancel one wedding. If the wedding's off, I have to deal with the cost of the flowers.
"If I get classed as a non-essential business and have to close, what will I do?
"It's frustrating because in Monmouthshire we're not on local lockdown at the moment. But a pan-Wales approach is better in the long run. It's fairer to all be in the same boat."
Carol Davies from Harts lingerie shop added: "Short and sharp is by no means guaranteed to work, as it took three months last time of much more severe restrictions than those currently proposed.
"Local lockdowns nearby have already been hugely damaging to business."
The Welsh Government said local and national measures have "kept the spread of the virus under check" but there was "a growing consensus" that new restrictions were needed as coronavirus spreads.
A spokesman added: "We are actively considering advice from Sage and our TAC group.

Covid: What can you do in Wales-wide lockdown? Published 23 October 2020
Image source, Getty Images
Major restrictions to people's lives have been introduced after Wales entered a 17-day "firebreak" lockdown.
Until Monday 9 November people living in Wales are being told to stay at home.
Pubs, bars and restaurants, gyms, and all non-essential shops have been made to close.
But what does it mean, and what can you do from 23 October to 9 November without breaking the law?
Can I leave my house?

Similar to during the first lockdown in March, people are being told to stay at home in a bid to curb the spread of coronavirus in Wales.
You are only allowed to leave your house to go to the shops to buy essential food and medication, get health care and treatment, to provide care, or to take exercise.
You should also work from home unless it is not possible.
Can I go to the shops?

All but essential shops had been told to close from 18:00 BST on Friday.
While people are not limited to their local authority, they are being told to shop as close to home as possible and not travel long distances.
Supermarkets, pharmacies, post offices and banks remain open, but are being told not to sell non-essential items, such as clothing, toys and homeware.
Can I see friends?
No. Under the new rules people cannot mix with others they do not live with.
From Friday you are not meant to meet others indoors, or socialise outdoors, such as in parks or people's gardens.
I live alone - can I see my family, partner or friend?
Image source, Getty Images Image caption, People living alone can meet another household indoors, under the rules
During local lockdowns people living alone were allowed to meet one other household indoors from their local areas, after concerns about isolation.
This has not changed, with those who live alone or in a single parent households being the only ones able to meet a household they do not live with.
This has to be the same one every time. But they can live anywhere, due to this being a national lockdown, however, the Welsh Government has urged people to form an extended household as "locally as possible".
Over the coming days, expect to see a return to the days of Zoom chats, virtual parties, people waving at each other from the end of drives, and people leaving shopping on door steps.
Can my children go to school?
Image source, PA Media
Primary and special schools will re-open as normal on 2 November after the half-term break - there is no extra time off.
In secondary schools only pupils in Years 7 and 8 will go back to class.
Pupils sitting exams will be able to go in to take them but all other pupils will continue their learning from home for an extra week.
What about childcare?

Childcare facilities are staying open during the 17 days in a bid to keep schools open.
Grandparents and other relatives can still care for children, but only if no other methods of childcare are available.
Where parents live apart, children will be allowed to continue to stay with both parents, with arrangements continuing as normal.
Can I go to the pub or a hotel?
Image source, Getty Images
No - from 18:00 BST on Friday pubs, bars, restaurants and hotels closed for 17 days.
This is similar to the first Wales-wide lockdown back in March. Beer gardens will be shut, and people are being warned not to drink in their friends' homes or gardens, or to gather in parks.
Pubs and food establishments are able to operate as takeaways.
Hotels and businesses in the tourism sector will not reopen until 9 November.
Can I go on holiday or visit my second home?
Image source, Getty Images Image caption, It is illegal to go on holiday in Wales or to travel abroad during lockdown
No, travelling to go on holiday in Wales, or outside Wales, including abroad, is not classed as "essential" travel during lockdown.
If you have pre-booked and paid for a holiday, the Welsh Government is advising people to contact their travel company to discuss the situation.
If you live outside of Wales or within Wales, travelling to stay, visit or check on your second home is illegal.
I'm worried about a friend or loved-one - can I visit?
You can travel to provide care or to help someone in need - such as an older person, a child or a vulnerable adult - even if they are not part of your household.
You can travel to visit someone on "compassionate grounds".
This may apply if you are worried someone is struggling with being isolated due to the restrictions, is having issues with their mental or physical health, has recently lost a loved one, or you are concerned about their wellbeing or welfare.
My family live in England - can I see them?
Image source, Getty Images
Travel across the border is now limited to "essential travel".
This includes providing care, or if you need to visit on compassionate grounds. If you live in a single person or single parent household you can travel across the border to visit your extended household.
People who live in Wales but work over the border are able to travel, if they cannot work from home.
Can I visit someone in a care home or hospital?
Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Care home visits have to be prearranged
Indoor visits to care homes may be allowed but only in "exceptional circumstances", such as for end-of-life visits.
But this is up to local councils and individual homes to decide if it can be done safely, and must be prearranged.
Similar rules apply to hospital and children's home visits.
Can I go to the gym?
Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Swimming pools and gyms had only recently reopened
No - gyms, pools and leisure centres are now closed for the 17 days.
However local parks, playgrounds and outdoor gyms remain open.
Can I go for a walk, bike ride or run?
Image source, Reuters
Yes - under the new national lockdown you can leave your house for exercise.
Unlike back in March, there is no limit to how many times you can leave the house to exercise or how far you can run, cycle, walk or jog, or to where - as local lockdown boundaries have now ended.
But exercising with others, such as running and cycling clubs, is not allowed, and you should start your exercise from home.
People are being asked not to drive anywhere to do sport as exercise, unless they have specific health reasons, and people are banned from driving "significant distances" to get to mountains, beaches and beauty spots.
The government is also asking people to avoid activities which involve a "significant degree of risk", such as open water swimming and water sports.
Golf and tennis clubs are required to close during the period of the lockdown.
What about community support groups?
The Welsh Government has confirmed that community support groups, who meet on non NHS premises, such as Alcoholics Anonymous, will have to temporarily stop.
This is due to gathering restrictions, and rules meaning you are not allowed to meet others from outside your own household.
A spokesman said they would be able to meet online.

The autumn Internationals and professional football are allowed to continue behind closed doors, and be broadcast into people's homes.
Sportspeople who work and earn a living through sport are allowed to continue working, and like everyone else they can leave home to do so if they cannot work from home.
All community, amateur sport and training is suspended during the 17 day period.
I live in a house share - what can I do?
People living in houses of multiple occupation (HMOs) who are single are able to "bubble up" with another household in Wales.
This also applies to students living in HMOs and to people in supported living arrangements with individual tenancies.
Can I drive or go on holiday?
Image source, Getty Images
You can travel, but only for a "reasonable" cause.
These include trips to buy essential items - such as food and medication - to seek medical help, get a coronavirus test, or to deliver care.
You can also travel to work, but only if you are a critical worker, or you do a job where you cannot work from home.
Travelling to go on holiday is against the law.
Also, people from outside Wales cannot visit on holiday.
Will public transport be running?
Image source, PA Media
Yes, but with reduced services.
Economy Minister Ken Skates said he had asked train and bus operators to cut down their services, particularly outside peak hours.
He said services would be similar to those running in August, and said it was "imperative" the remaining spaces were available for key workers and essential journeys.
Taxis are allowed to run if they have measures to cut the risk of transmitting the virus in the car.
But they should only be used for essential journeys.
What if I am at university?
Image source, Getty Images
Cases have been confirmed at university halls of residence, with thousands of students self-isolating on campuses across Wales.
During the 17 days students have been told not to head home, but to stay where they are.First Minister Mark Drakeford added: "In the same way we are asking everyone to stay at home, if students have reading weeks or half-term they will also need to stay at home in their university accommodation."
Do I have to shield again if I am high risk?
During the last lockdown thousands of vulnerable people with medical conditions and the elderly where told to stay in the house and shield, due to being high-risk from the virus.
However, the Welsh Government has not re-introduced shielding for such people.
The first minister said this was because if everyone stuck strictly to the rules the risk of exposure would be reduced.
People are being advised to shop at quieter times of the day if they are high risk.
What about health services?
The Welsh Government has stressed that people should still seek medical help.
Dentists, opticians, audiology services, chiropody, chiropractors, osteopaths, and counselling and mental health services will remain open.
Can I have my hair cut or a beauty treatment?

Many people resorted to home cuts during the last national lockdown back in March, with hairdressers trying to repair dodgy shaves and cuts when they reopened.
Once again, you will have to wait until you can see your hairdresser again.
Hair salons, barbers, and beauticians are now closed until the end of the national lockdown.
Can I get married, go to a funeral or go to my place of worship?
This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Media caption, This couple were due to celebrate tying the knot in front of 300 guests
During this 17-day lockdown places of worship are closed to congregations, apart from the holding of weddings, civil partnerships and funerals.
Numbers allowed at ceremonies will depend on how many people can fit in the venue, with social distancing in place.
Receptions are banned once again.
Funerals can go ahead, with social distancing in place, and numbers depending on the venue size.
You will not be allowed to host a wake or any gathering following the funeral.
Can I move house?
Image source, Getty Images Image caption, House viewings have been suspended from Friday
Yes, you can move house, if you cannot delay the moving date until after the short lockdown period is over.
However, property viewings cannot take place during the circuit-breaker period and high street estate agencies are required to close.
What about my car and home repairs?
Work can be carried out in people's homes, for example by tradespeople, as long as it is managed in a safe way and both the worker and household members have no symptoms of coronavirus.
But the Welsh Government is recommending people consider if the work can be safely deferred until after the lockdown.
No work should be carried out in any home where someone is isolating, unless it is to repair a fault which poses a direct risk to people's safety.
If the MoT on your vehicle is due, you should still take it to the garage.
Driving lessons are banned, and driving tests are not going ahead.
What about Halloween and Bonfire Night?
Image source, Getty Images
This will be an autumn like no other.
With people banned from meeting outdoors, trick-or-treating and fireworks are both off.
The ban will be "self-policing", says First Minister Mark Drakeford.
However, planned Remembrance Day events on Sunday 8 November - just hours before the new lockdown ends - will be allowed to go ahead.
What happens if you break the rules?
Image source, Getty Images
You may be told to go home or removed from where you are and returned home.
You could have to pay a fixed penalty notice of £60. This will rise to £120 for the second breach.
Or you could have criminal proceedings brought against you and, if found guilty, you will have to pay a fine.
What happens next?
The first minister has suggested there will not be a return to local lockdown measures in Wales once the 17 days are over.
Instead of different communities having different rules, Mr Drakeford has stressed the need for national rules, which will apply in all parts of Wales, so that people will know who they can spend time with over the festive period.
It remains to be seen what these measures will be.

If you and your boyfriend both live alone and in England , you can form a support bubble , which means that you can spend as much as time as you want in each other ’ s company , inside or outside a house .
You don ’ t have to keep a 2m distance from one another , and you can stay overnight at each other ’ s house .
If you are living alone , and your partner is in a shared household ( or vice versa ) , matters get complicated .
You can still form a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will also be with his household , and it would be the only bubble allowed to that household .
What this means is that if one of your boyfriend ’ s housemates has a partner who is - like you - living elsewhere and alone , that couple will be prevented from meeting up .
Support bubbles are for the benefit of people who are living alone ( or alone with children ) .
If both you and your boyfriend are living in shared households , you are not allowed to form one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and at a distance of 2m from each other .
Northern Ireland has also introduced support bubbles while Scotland and Wales now allow a similar arrangement known as `` extended households '' .
In all of these , if one person taking part develops symptoms , every member of the bubble or extended household must self-isolate .

How is the government going to protect vulnerable children who remain unvaccinated? My son has cystic fibrosis and will now be forced to mix - he has not had any access to vaccination.
Because your son is in a clinical risk group - and as long as he is over five - he should soon be offered two doses of the Pfizer vaccine. You should be contacted by your GP or specialist team to arrange this.
With regard to the dangers of mixing, the UK has also recommended that Covid vaccines are offered to all children aged 5 to 11, not just those at high clinical risk. This is likely to start in England in April. Children are generally at much lower risk of becoming seriously ill from a Covid infection, although some do still get sick and need hospital care. Over-12s can already be vaccinated, and it's hoped that extending the rollout to younger age groups will help protect even more children from the risk of catching and spreading Covid.
Schools are expected to work with and support families who have concerns about a pupil returning to the classroom. It is compulsory for school-age children to attend, even if they were previously shielding - the only exception is a small number of children whose clinician or GP has advised them not to attend. If you have concerns about this, you should talk to your doctor.
