Alex Goode has been named European Player of the Year after helping Saracens win a third Champions Cup in four years.
The Saracens came from 10‑0 down to beat holders and four‑time champions Leinster 20‑10 and regain the trophy.
Goode beat fellow nominees Sean Cronin, Tadhg Furlong, Garry Ringrose and Mako Vunipola and received the award on the pitch after the final.
