THE FOUR IRISH provinces will switch their attentions to the European Champions Cup this week on the back of wins in round 10 of the Guinness Pro12.
Munster kicked off a successful weekend for Irish rugby on Friday night, with Ian Keatley’s late drop goal ensuring that they remain at the top of the table after a 16-15 victory away to Glasgow Warriors.
Connacht ran in seven tries at the Sportsground as they eased to a 47-8 triumph over bottom side Benetton Treviso.
Ulster ended a dismal run of three consecutive defeats with a bonus-point 35-22 win at home to Cardiff Blues.
Leinster also secured a bonus point to draw level on points with Munster on Saturday night as they saw off Newport Gwent Dragons 28-15 at the RDS to complete a clean sweep for the Irish sides.
If the semi’s are anything to go by, this should make it a cracking final.
It will be an amazing match and a night to remember!
Is this the World Cup final If so it’s been very low key, Come on USA!!
Any chance of your number Hil? You sound exactly like my type
The motivator (Klopp)
vs.
the tactician (heynckes)
The tactician to to win in the end, Bayern 3-1 and muller (as always) first scorer.
Should be a great game, I hope Dortmund can do it!
Gundogen versus Schweiny. In already getting tent pants just thinking about it.
Hillary if you keep going you might get that lovely arm of yours around your neck !!
Only joking.
Dortmund 7-2. I wonder hmmmm
Think bayern will beat them 3-1 that’s my bet for the match
Those were two worthy winners up there, though both sides had aging players and disappeared off the radar after those successes. Great to see them back again.
@ Denis
The Germans shouldn’t get too carried away.
Meaning: Don’t start boasting, try to be modest. And they are fairly modest about it all.
You took this in the wrong way and then went on from there.
…There’s always one trying to rain on the parade.
Who is trying to rain on the parade…..
The Germans shouldn’t get too carried away.
We’ve already had an all-Spanish, Italian and English final.
Real Madrid vs. Valenica, AC Milan vs. Juventus, Man Utd vs. Chelsea.
Barcelona, Man Utd and the other big boys will be back next year…..
Who’s getting carried away? All they said was its great to have an all German final!
They didn’t declare they are the worlds greatest league like so many players and commentators in England do, nor did they mention anything about next year…
There’s always one trying to rain on the parade, just enjoy the spectacle of two very attacking teams trying to dismantle each other!
