Welford Road
Heineken Champions Cup
Leinster Rugby went through to
the semi-finals of the Heineken
Champions Cup after a 23-14 win
over Leicester Tigers at Mattioli
Woods Welford Road.
A 20-point first half lead was enough
breathing room for Leinster to see out the
victory, coming through tries from Josh
van der Flier and Robbie Henshaw.
The now English champions pushed
back after the break and tries from Chris
Ashton and Nic Dolly closed the gap
before Ross Byrne settled nerves with
three points from the tee.
A brace of tries by James Lowe and two
more from Josh van der Flier and Hugo
Keenan were enough to dethrone the
French side at a sun-drenched Aviva
Stadium.
In front of over 42,000 people, Leinster
fell behind to an early Antoine Dupont try
before unleashing a clinical performance
for the remaining 70 minutes.
Leading 23-10 at the break, they kicked
on further in the second half to book their
place in the final.

Aviva Stadium
United Rugby Championship
Leinster Rugby ended their
United Rugby Championship
regular season with a win against
Munster at Aviva Stadium.
They set up a home quarter-final against
Glasgow Warriors on the first weekend
in June.
Much-changed from the Toulouse win,
Leinster scored within a minute through
Scott Penny, before Cormac Foley got his
first try for the province after Munster had
hit back.
Harry Byrne was in good form while
man of the match Jordan Larmour had a
big say in setting up Rory O’Loughlin’s
effort, later voted as the province’s Try of
the Year.
A 10-point win for Leinster in front of
32,411 was a nice way to sign off the
regular season.
