  • Glasgow-Gwent Dragons Newpor

    80'’ Glasgow finish their campaign with a hard-fought 13-10 victory at Hughenden to secure third place in Pool 5. Thanks for joining me this afternoon. We'll be back with coverage of the Guinness Premiership next weekend.

  • Bath-Toulouse

    80'’ All over at The Rec and neither side has the result they wanted. The 3-3 draw means both teams will travel away in the quarter-finals. Here's the full draw - CARDIFF v TOULOUSE / MUNSTER v OSPREYS / HARLEQUINS v LEINSTER / LEICESTER v BATH.

  • Glasgow-Gwent Dragons Newpor

    74'’ Shaun Connor kicks a penalty for Dragons. Glasgow lead 13-10 at Hughenden.

  • Bath-Toulouse

    50'’ Bath are piling on the pressure. They are right on the Toulouse line, but the French side are resisting.

  • Bath-Toulouse

    46'’ James with a 50-yard penalty attempt for Bath, but he pulls it. The conditions are making kicking very difficult.

  • Glasgow-Gwent Dragons Newpor

    46'’ Ruaridh Jackson goes over for Glasgow. Gregor converts and the home side lead 13-7

  • Bath-Toulouse

    41'’ Away we go with the second half at The Rec. If the match finishes in a draw both side will get away ties in the quarter-finals. Toulouse will go to Cardiff and Bath will go to Leicester. Neither will want that. The rain has eased,

  • Glasgow-Gwent Dragons Newpor

    40'’ The Dragons lead 7-6 at half-time in the match of no consequence.

  • Bath-Toulouse

    40'’ Half-time in Bath and we're all square at 3-3. The conditions are very nasty indeed, which has put running rugby out of the equation.

  • Glasgow-Gwent Dragons Newpor

    36'’ Prop Tom Willis scores the opening try of the match for the Dragons. James Arlidge converts and the visitors lead.

  • Castres-London Wasps

    23'’ Toulouse have levelled the match. Jean-Baptiste Elissalde did the damage with his boot.

  • Glasgow-Gwent Dragons Newpor

    5'’ Colin Gregor puts Glasgow ahead against the Dragons.

  • Bath-Toulouse

    3'’ Butch James puts Bath ahead with an early penalty. The conditions are appalling at The Rec, absolutely appalling.

  • Glasgow-Gwent Dragons Newpor

    1'’ Nothing but pride to play for in this one. But we'll bring you all the action nonetheless.

  • Bath-Toulouse

    1'’ Both these sides are guaranteed a spot in the quarter-finals, but they are playing for a home tie when they get there. The loser will probably face a trip to Cardiff Blues and nobody will fancy that.

  • Leinster-Edinburgh

    80'’ Leinster win a try-less game 12-3 and finish top of Pool 2. They will have an away tie in the quarter-finals.

  • MTG 15-Munster

    80'’ Murphy adds Munster's fifth try late on to seal an emphatic victory for the Irish side. They run home 39-13 winners and are now guaranteed a home tie in the quarter-finals.

  • Castres-London Wasps

    80'’ It's all over at Stade Pierre Antoine and Wasps' hopes of reaching the quarter-finals have been destroyed. They lose 21-15 and go away with just the solitary bonus point.

  • Castres-London Wasps

    76'’ DISASTER FOR WASPS!!! Bouquie dances through their defence far too easily and goes over for Castres. Teulet converts and Castre lead 21-15.

  • MTG 15-Munster

    66'’ WHAT A TRY FROM WASPS!!!! Mark van Gisbergen runs a penalty from their 22 and Dom Waldouck bursts through and breaks three tackles to go over. Cipriani misses the conversion, but Wasps lead 15-14. They have two tries. Two more needed.

  • Leinster-Edinburgh

    55'’ Leinster are holding onto their 12-3 lead against Edinburgh. Still no tries in that match.

  • MTG 15-Munster

    55'’ Mafi has a second try and Munster are waltzing towards the quarter-finals and surely a home tie now. O'Gara converts and they lead 24-6.

  • Castres-London Wasps

    58'’ Wasps are running out of time in Castres. They really need a bonus-point win and require two more tries to make that happen.

  • MTG 15-Munster

    44'’ Munster are beginning to pull away. Lifeimi Mafi goes over for their second try and O'Gara duly converts.

  • Castres-London Wasps

    51'’ WHAT AN OPPORTUNITY MISSED BY WASPS!!! Riki Flutey makes a fine break, Wasps recycle and Paul Sackey almost gets in at the corner...he rolls the ball back and Rob Webber just needs to bend down, pick up and touch down. BUT HE KNOCKS FORWARD!!

  • Castres-London Wasps

    45'’ Early penalty chance for Bouque, but he hits the post and three points go begging.

  •   The second halves are underway!

  • Castres-London Wasps

    25'’ WHAT TRY FROM CIPRIANI!!! The England fly-half bursts through the Castres defence and turns on the gas to run home. He converts his own handiwork and Wasps now trail 14-10.

  • MTG 15-Munster

    22'’ TRY!!! Scrum-half Tomas O'Leary goes over for Munster, with his halfback partner Ronan O'Gara converting to put the visitors ahead 7-6.

  • Leinster-Edinburgh

    23'’ Contepomi with his third penalty to put Leinster 9-0 to the good against Edinburgh.

  • Castres-London Wasps

    24'’ Castres are all over Wasps, and they get the try they deserve when number eight Joe Tekori picks up from the scrum, bursts towards the line and pops the ball up for Chris Masoe to touch down. Bouque converts, Castres lead 14-3.

    17'’ Contempomi with another penalty for Leinster. As we stand they will win Pool 2. Wasps are behind against Castres.

  • Leinster-Edinburgh

    12'’ Felipe Contepomi puts Leinster ahead with his boot.

  • Leinster-Edinburgh

    9'’ Edinburgh with the early possession at RDS. The visitors have flying out the blocks in this one.

  • Leinster-Edinburgh

    1'’ Like Wasps, Leinster need a bonus-point win to be sure of winning Pool 2. But if both teams score the same points today Leinster will go through as Pool winners.

  • MTG 15-Munster

    1'’ This one is a dead rubber in terms of qualification. Munster are through and Montauban have no chance, having only gained six points from five matches so far. However, Munster's seeding for the quarters is still undecided. The more points they accrue the better chance of a home tie.

  • Castres-London Wasps

    1'’ The equation for Wasps is simple. A bonus-point win will put them in the quarter-finals. A four-pointer will leave them relying on other results.
