Mark McCall heaps praise on "phenomenal" Alex Goode

Saracens head coach Mark McCall has hailed the "phenomenal" performance of Alex Goode in this afternoon's 34-24 victory over Bath.

The England international supplied 14 points from the boot to help Sarries on their way to an impressive win at Allianz Park, filling in for regular kicker Charlie Hodgson, who had departed early on through injury.

"I thought he was phenomenal," McCall is quoted as saying by London 24. "Not just in attack, but he must have made two or three last-ditch tackles on their wingers. He was outstanding today.

"We created plenty of chances today, but overall, we're pleased to get four points and the fact that they got nothing from the game. It's all about accumulating as many points as you can now to get into the top four."

Saracens find themselves in third place in the Aviva Premiership table, sitting three points clear of Exeter Chiefs in fifth.
