Leinster beat Glasgow Warriors to reach Champions Cup semi-finals

Leinster made light work of Glasgow Warriors in the Champions Cup quarter-finals at the Aviva Stadium on Friday night.

Under Leo Cullen's management, the team scored eight tries in a 52-0 win over their Scottish rivals. They will face either Northampton Saints or Castres in the next round.

After a promising start to the match, the visiting Leinster took the initiative thanks to a well-taken try from Max Deegan.

The home side took a 14-0 lead after a penalty was awarded for a deliberate kick. Glasgow were no match for Leinster and a clever pass behind the Warriors defence led to Hugo Keenan scoring to make it 33-0 at half-time.

Robbie Henshaw made his 100th appearance when he replaced Garry Ringrose in the second half. It was a smooth game for Leinster, who completed their dominance with a cross-field effort to Max Deegan that landed in the corner.

It was the second game in a row in which Leinster had kept a clean sheet after they thrashed Harlequins 62-0 last weekend.
