Leinster breeze past Glasgow Warriors to reach Champions Cup semi-final
@Source: breakingnews.ie
Leinster made light work of Glasgow Warriors in their Champions Cup quarter-final at the Aviva Stadium on Friday evening.
Leo Cullen's side ran in eight tries in a 52-0 win over the Scottish outfit - they will now face either Northampton Saints or Castres in the next round.
After a promising start from the visitors, Leinster took control with a well-worked try finished off by Max Deegan.
The home side went up 14-0 thanks to a penalty try awarded by the referee for an intentional knock on. Glasgow could not get a handle on Leinster, and a smart kick in behind the Warriors' defence led to Hugo Keenan scoring to make it 33-0 at the half.
Robbie Henshaw came on for his 100th cap when he replaced Garry Ringrose in the second half. It was smooth sailing for Leinster, who rounded out a dominant display with a cross-field kick to Max Deegan, who dotted down in the corner.
It is the second game in a row Leinster held their opponents to 0 points after they beat Harlequins 62-0 last weekend.
Another big @ChampionsCup win! 🙌💙#LEIvGLA #NeverLessThanEverything pic.twitter.com/Lrj9rXmab7
