Saracens coach Mark McCall thrilled with European Rugby Champions Cup opener

Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall has described his side's European Rugby Champions Cup opener at home to Toulouse as a 'heck of a match'.

Last year's semi-finalists will welcome the four-time champions to Allianz Park on November 14.

"It's a heck of start to have one of the French powerhouses coming to our place first up, and it's incredibly exciting and should be a great match at Allianz Park," McCall is quoted as saying by ESPN.

Saracens start the new Aviva Premiership campaign on October 17 when they host Sale Sharks.
