European Rugby Champions

Leinster staged one of the greatest comebacks in modern rugby championship play on Saturday night.

Down 6-22 at the half, Leinster came out and played their trademark aggressive tempo game after the break. They won the Heineken Cup for the second time in the last three years 33-22 over England's Northampton Saints.

They are once again the European champions.
