Saracens have described the injury suffered by Scotland international Andy Onyeama-Christie against Harelquins as ‘horrendous’.

Saracens, who were hit by the serious injury to back-rower Onyeama-Christie early on, were repeatedly repelled by a resolute home side as Quins inflicted a first defeat of the season on their visitors.

Fin Baxter scored the only try of the first half for Harlequins but Hugh Tizard’s score early in the second half levelled the game.

Lennox Anyanwu’s score put Quins back ahead after 52 minutes before Marcus Smith and Alex Lozowski exchanged penalties in the closing stages.

On Onyeama-Christie’s injury, Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall said: “It doesn’t look great, I don’t think.

“I think we’re talking a fracture-dislocation of his ankle, so that’s the big thing today, really, and just so gutted, everybody is.

“He’s had a real tough three years, [with] two broken arms, and for that to happen it’s just horrendous for him, so our thoughts are with him.”

On the match itself, McCall added: “I think we had a lot of territory in the game, a lot of entries into their 22 and on the day we just weren’t good enough to convert those into anything.

“Credit their defence as well – they defended like their lives depended on it.

“We had five or six line-outs five metres from their goal line and came away with nothing.

“Obviously, it was 7-0 at half-time, but it felt like we had dominated the first half, certainly from a territory point of view. It’s just our attack wasn’t good enough.”

Harlequins head coach Danny Wilson agreed his side’s defence allowed them to end their hoodoo against London rivals Saracens, who were defeated 17-10 at the Twickenham Stoop.

Quins had lost their previous seven Gallagher Premiership fixtures against Sarries, with their two defeats last season being by scorelines of 38-10 and 52-7.

Wilson said: “As a group, we’ve put defence first more often.

“We’ve started meetings with the defence coach [Jason Gilmore], we’ve started [training] sessions with defence, we’ve talked about defence at the end of sessions as deeply as we talk about attack.

“Quins doesn’t want to lose its attacking identity but if we don’t improve our defence, we have to score five tries every week to give us a chance of winning.

“What we’ve done today is hold Saracens to 10 points, so that gives us a chance – OK, we needed to score two [tries] but it had a Test-match feel about it.

“When three points were available, we were taking the three and that’s why it felt like a Test match, normally we’d go straight to the corner.

“So, we’re really pleased from that point of view, not just defensively right across the pitch, but also their maul because we’d talked a lot about maul defence.”

BITCOIN RECOMMENDED EXPERT HIRE DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY SERVICES


The ink doesn't wash off, but I thought my Bitcoin was gone forever. I'd stashed $130,000 worth of crypto away to turn my tattoo parlor into a fantasy parlor—black walls, neon lights, the hum of needles mixed with classic rock music. But fate is cruelly ironic.One night, having spent an eight-hour shift etching half a snake wrapped around a dagger, I came home to find the shop robbed. Cash register emptied out, machines thrown around like playthings, and the worst of all, my phone stolen. That phone had my 2FA codes, the sacred keys to my digital riches.Panic washed over me like road rash on bare flesh. Without 2FA, my Bitcoin was more secure than a welded-shut vault. I plunged into horror. Every hour out of reach was like watching a masterpiece rot in the sun.Desperate, I griped to a client at a cover-up session. He had a Bitcoin logo stitched on his sleeve, alongside a skull laughing maniacally in a Digital hat. He leaned back in the chair, grinning like an old road captain, and said, "Brother, you need Digital Tech Guard Recovery. Those guys do magic."So, taking his tip, I did call them up. From the very first phone call, they were sharper than a new needle. They were in the business—talking carrier records, blockchain synchronization, and security breaches like old truckers swapping stories of carburetor war battles and close calls.They labored fast. Five days went by before I got the call. "We got it," the technician said. My heart was revving like a helicopter engine. My Bitcoin was once more in my hands, safe and sound.The Digitals did not cease. They guided me through backups, multi-device login, and offline wallets. "One key in your pocket, another in the wind," they said. Biker street smarts meets crypto security.Now, my studio is thriving. That neon sign? It glows brighter than ever. And on my forearm? A new tattoo: a Digital hat, with flames and Bitcoin logos surrounding it. A reminder that in this world, both on the road and on the internet, it's not about not falling, it's about knowing who you can call to pick you up. Digital Tech Guard Recovery: They're by your side, even when the ride gets rocky

REACH OUT TO TECH CYBER FORCE RECOVERY FOR A GREAT JOB

Fine wine and crypto do not always blend well, especially after a few drinks. I learned this the hard way after a record harvest at my vineyard. Swirling an old Cabernet under the stars, I was a financial connoisseur, my $720,000 Bitcoin wallet aging well for future returns. But the next morning, with a hangover as intense as my Merlion, I realized I'd forgotten my wallet password. Even worse, my recovery phrase, which I'd written down in my wine cellar notebook, had vanished. My eager new assistant had tidied up, mistaking my scribbled security notes for wine tasting spillage, and donated the entire book to the recycling gods. I dove into the garbage cans like a desperate sommelier searching for a quality grape but came up with broken dreams and soggy cardboard. Panic set in faster than cork taint. I faced the bitter truth: my digital fortune was bottled up tighter than a corked bottle with no opener. I sank into denial, questioning whether my future vineyard expansion would now be reduced to selling boxed wine. I panicked, pored over industry publications, and came across a wine industry newsletter that mentioned Tech Cyber Force Recovery. Their slogan, something playful about "decanting lost crypto," seemed like a sign from God. I contacted them, half-expecting snobbery or skepticism. What I received instead were tech wizards who tackled my case with humor and precision. Their team labored over my case like veteran sommeliers dissecting terroir. They painstakingly reconstructed transaction flows, timestamp records, and subtle wallet behavior. It was as if I was watching wine connoisseurs sniff out hints of blackcurrant and oak, but with algorithms and blockchain forensics. Each day, they provided updates with the finesse of tasting notes. “We’re detecting progress, notes of potential access, hints of password recovery on the finish.” Their creativity lightened my anxiety, and ten days later, they uncorked my digital vault. When I saw my Bitcoin balance restored, I nearly opened a bottle of my best vintage at 9 AM. My assistant and I shared a hearty laugh; he's still working for me, but now he labels my ledgers with "DO NOT TOUCH" in bold. My wine business is thriving thanks to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, and I have a new rule: passwords before Pinot. Cheers to their genius!
