On The Record
Tadhg Furlong expresses his excitement ahead of tonight’s Champions Cup clash with Montpellier which has already started.
It’s a chance for us to book a quarter-final spot if we win and a chance to right a few wrongs from the game over there as well. It’s a huge game for us and one we’re really looking forward to.
“It would be huge if we could get through, it was disappointing last year. There’s a lot of young fellas like myself that got a first start last year against Bath and we definitely learned a lot from the campaign.”
The Fixture List
There’s plenty of rugby and football action coming up tomorrow. Munster and Connacht both have Champions Cup fixtures down for decision.
The Premier League is back this weekend, with Chelsea looking to extend their lead tomorrow against Leicester. Meanwhile, Arsenal face Swansea and Spurs host West Brom.
