Exeter dethroned Prem champions Bath and reached their first final since 2021 thanks to a storming second-half revival at the Rec.
The Chiefs’ proud 100-per-cent record in play-off games looked certain to end as Bath made light of Finn Russell’s absence to lead 26-10 at the break.
But tries from Ben Hammersley and Greg Fisilau got the visitors to within touching distance and, with Bath’s Joe Cokanasiga in the sin-bin, Ethan Burger barrelled over to give his side a 27-26 victory.
Exeter will play regular-season table-toppers Northampton in the final at Twickenham next Saturday.
