Pool 1 European Champions cup 17-12-16

SATURDAY

LEICESTER 18-16 MUNSTER

WILLIAMS HALF WAY KICK KEEPS LEICESTER DREAM ALIVE



The score was 6-6 at half-time, courtesy of two penalties apiece from Williams and Tyler Bleyendaal.
When Simon Zebo was sent to the sin-bin with 15 minutes remaining, Williams kicked Leicester into a six-point lead.
Niall Scannell went over to put Munster ahead, but Williams held his nerve to keep Tigers' Champions Cup hopes alive.


With this type of rivalry I think that you always knew that an angry Leister would comer to fight and that was what happened but Munster did not have their kicking boots and that was a huge problem at least the way that I see it. Munster against Racing both home and away will be a huge factor in this group.
FRIDAY

GLASGOW 23-7 RACING

STRAUS SCORES TRY TO PUT GLASGOW IN POLE POSITION


Josh Strauss and Fraser Brown powered over for first-half tries after fine work from fly-half Finn Russell, who kicked two penalties.
Scrum-half Ali Price fizzed in for a third score after 47 minutes.
Glasgow has shown that this year they can be a force and maybe even reach a quarter final. They strong and ready for any team this season and in Europe this is not a thing said that often as for Racing they have a lot to change at the end of this season if they are to do as well as last.
