Bristol (12) 12 Leinster (17) 25
Leinster defeated Bristol at the Memorial Ground this afternoon to maintain their 100 per cent record at the conclusion of the group stages of the Heineken Cup.
Leinster, the only side in the competition to have won all six games, ran out comfortable 12-25 winners in the Pool Four clash and will now meet Biarritz in the quarter-final at Lansdowne Road in April.
With London Irish running our 32-29 winners against Toulouse today, Leinster also avoided playing fellow Irish province, Munster, who will travel to Leicester in the quarter-finals after a historic win against Gloucester at Thomond Park yesterday ensured their progress.
