OWEN FARRELL faces a race to save his season after being injured while booking Saracens a home Premiership semi-final.

The England captain limped off the Tottenham pitch in distress after a knock to the left ankle on which he had surgery 16 months ago.

Watched by his dad - the Grand Slam-winning Ireland coach Andy Farrell had built Sarries a winning lead here before going down clutching his foot.

He left the field in obvious pain and sympathetic applause from the 55,109 crowd could not mask the concern around the stadium. Saracens boss Mark McCall said: "Owen has aggravated the ankle he aggravated with England.

"We'll have to see what the problem is, and to what degree he's aggravated it."

Farrell's left ankle had only just recovered from the grade he one ligament damage suffered in England's home defeat by France two weeks ago.
