Glasgow Warriors secured a dominant 28-3 victory over Saracens at Scotstoun, finishing the Champions Cup pool stage with a perfect record and 20 points. Tries from Ollie Smith, Kyle Steyn, and George Horne, plus a late score from Seb Stephen, ensured a bonus point win.

The result guarantees Glasgow a home last-16 tie against the Bulls, maintaining a potential path to the semi-finals. Despite Saracens' improved second-half possession, the Warriors' towering defence held firm, preserving their commanding lead and showcasing their title credentials.

Saracens, meanwhile, must travel to Bath for their knockout match. With a flawless pool campaign, Franco Smith's side now carries significant momentum and home-field advantage into the competition's latter stages, a crucial edge in European knockout rugby.
