A 67th minute try by England's controversial No. 8 Billy Vunipola earned Saracens a third European Champions Cup title in four years with a 20-10 win over Leinster on Saturday.

Issued with an official warning by the English RFU and by his London club after an Instagram post in support of a homophobic posting by Australia full-back Israel Folau, Vunipola held off a trio of defenders to claim the decisive score of a heavyweight clash that did not disappoint in front of a capacity 51,930 St James' Park crowd.
