Leinster Survive Late Scare to Book Champions Cup Final Spot

Leinster ended the match 29-25 to win against Toulon.

Leinster are through to the Champions Cup final after edging Toulon 29-25 at the Aviva Stadium, but it was far from straightforward for Leo Cullen's side.

Leinster built a strong lead through tries from Jack Conan, Josh van der Flier, Garry Ringrose, and Caelan Doris, putting themselves in control heading into the final quarter.

However, Toulon mounted a late comeback with two converted tries to cut the gap to four points, forcing Leinster to dig deep in the closing stages.

There was a strong Kildare presence on the bench, with Sam Prendergast coming on the wing, while Jamie Osborne made a strong impact after coming on early. 

Leinster now turn their focus to a final showdown in Bilbao.
