Match Commentary

81'20-19 End of second half
80'The restart isn't good enough from Sarries, Quins gather the ball and gleefully boot it out. The hosts have beaten their rivals for a third successive year at the Stoop but should they have been awarded the penalty that led to their decisive try?
79'TRY! Goode cannot quite cut out another crossfield kick from Care and Tim Visser is left to canter over the line. Quins seem to have snatched it!
79'20-19 Try - Tim Visser , Harlequins
78'And he nails it.
78'The big Wallaby is penalised for grabbing Lang by the shirt. A strange decision, but one that gives Lang the chance to kick Quins into the corner.
77'Lang almost finds a hole in the Saracens defence on halfway but Skelton flings out an arm to take him down.
75'Just as Quins draw within a point, Farrell slots another penalty to extend his side's lead to four points. The hosts have five minutes to find a third try.
75'15-19 Penalty goal - Owen Farrell , Saracens
72'15-16 Conversion - James Lang , Harlequins

68'Substitute on - Ben Spencer , Saracens
68'Player substituted - Richard Wigglesworth , Saracens
67'Skelton celebrates wildly as 21 phases of Quins pressure ends with Pearce awarding the visitors a scrum. That was some defensive stand.

67'Substitute on - Dave Ward , Harlequins
67'Substitute on - Lewis Boyce , Harlequins

61'8-16 Penalty goal - Owen Farrell , Saracens
60'Saracens get the drive on in the scrum and win the penalty.
59'Will Skelton gets the visitors moving into the hosts' 22, Robshaw appears to have secured the turnover but Pearce blows his whistle to give the scrum to Saracens.
56'Goode penalised for a high tackle on his opposite number, Brown. That is the eighth penalty Saracens have conceded -- double the number Quins have given away.

47'Goode mops up a Quins attack brilliantly and then bursts out of his 22 to get Saracens moving forward.
44'Maro Itoje takes Saracens up towards the Quins 22 with his first carry of the match. But as the play develops Alex Goode is isolated and knocks on under pressure from three defenders.
43'8-10 Penalty goal - James Lang , Harlequins
41'We're back underway in west London and Quins are back on the front foot.
41'5-10 End of first half
40'Quins embark on one last attack from inside their own 22 but eventually the ball is fed back to Brown and he boots it out to bring an end to an absorbing first half. Quins end it on top but still behind.
40'5-10 Start of second half
39'Some more handbags as Chris Robshaw takes exception to something. It all settles down fairly quickly though.
38'Quins have had 75 percent possession and 81 percent territory during the first half, yet they remain five points behind on the scoreboard.
35'Clark comes up with a crucial turnover just as it looked as though Quins would notch their second try of the game.
34'Jamie Roberts bursts through a Farrell tackle to set Quins on the attack. Richard Wigglesworth does well to cut out the danger for now, but Quins have an attacking lineout.
32'Early arrival from the bench for Kyle Sinckler who replaces Will Collier who has been forced off with an injury.
32'Substitute on - Kyle Sinckler , Harlequins
32'Player substituted - Will Collier , Harlequins
26'TRY! Charlie Walker claims Danny Care's crossfield kick to dot down on the right wing, and Quins finally have something to show for around seven minutes of pressure.
26'5-10 Try - Charlie Walker , Harlequins
22'Elia Elia breaches the Saracens try line following multiple phases of Quins pressure. Pearce says that the ball has been held up, although TV replays suggest he got it down.
20'Saracens withstand wave after wave of Quins pressure, before Mike Brown chips over the top. There was a penalty coming though, and the hosts kick to the corner once more.
17'Quins win another penalty from the lineout, and they opt for another one.
17'Pearce awards Quins a penalty and they boot it towards the corner.
16'Referee Luke Pearce chats to his TMO after it gets a bit heated on the touchline after James Horwill is hit in the face by George Kruis' knee.
14'Saracens awarded a penalty deep in the Quins half as the hosts are penalised for bringing down their drive illegally. Farrell eschews the three points and kicks to the corner.
12'A rare aberration from Farrell, who kicks the ball out on the full to give Quins a lineout in the Saracens half.
9'Meanwhile, Farrell extends the Saracens lead with a penalty.
9'Lang, a late call-up the Quins starting XV, is receiving treatment on what appears to be a shoulder injury. Could the hosts be forced into another reshuffle?
9'0-10 Penalty goal - Owen Farrell , Saracens
6'Lang drops back for a drop goal attempt, but George is out quickly to charge down.
6'Drop goal-missed
5'Calum Clark gives away a penalty, giving the hosts an attacking platform for the first time in the match.

1'Hello and welcome to live coverage of Saracens' trip to Harlequins in the Aviva Premiership. The hosts are 10th heading into this match and have had issues with defence and discipline so far this season.

They are also without Marcus Smith after the young fly-half failed a fitness test. He has been replaced in the No. 10 shirt by James Lang.
