Match Commentary

81'+131-17 End of second half
80'One last scrum for players to get through before Steenson gets possession and boots the ball out to bring an end to a dominant win for Exeter. This was nothing like the Premiership final, the hosts in control almost from the first whistle.
80'Rob Baxter shakes hands with those around him and has a big smile on his face as he heads to the Chiefs changing room. Job done.
79'Penalty to Wasps, and the visitors have one last chance to launch an attack.
78'Henry Slade departs to a standing ovation and as the game's man of the match.
