Exeter come from behind to defeat defending champions Bath 27-26 and secure a place in the Gallagher Premiership final. Multiple outlets describe a dramatic second-half turnaround at The Recreation Ground, where Exeter score heavily after trailing earlier in the match. The42 and other reports say Exeter produce an exceptional period that includes a run of 17 unanswered points, turning the contest in their favour. BBC Sport and Yahoo Sports also highlight the narrow final margin and Exeter’s ability to overturn Bath’s advantage in the closing stages. Coverage adds that the result prevents Bath from achieving back-to-back titles and ends Exeter’s wait to reach a final, with Sky Sports noting it is their first final appearance since 2021. After the win, Exeter progress to face Northampton in the Premiership final, according to The42. The match is repeatedly characterized as an “epic” or “stunning” comeback, with accounts citing decisive scoring in the second half and a last-gasp defensive stand from Exeter to hold on for victory.
