Leinster 15-12 Racing 92: Late Isa Nacewa penalty secures Champions Cup
An Isa Nacewa penalty with just 90 seconds remaining saw Leinster defeat Racing 92 15-12 in a try-less and rain-sodden Champions Cup final in Bilbao.

The victory sees Leinster secure a record-equalling fourth European Cup crown, but the defeat was agonising for Racing, who led on four separate occasions.

The accurate left foot of Teddy Iribaren pushed Racing into slender leads again and again, but the ill-discipline of the Parisians combined with a resolute Leinster rearguard eventually told.

Johnny Sexton had kept Leinster in touch with three penalties, but after two misses, Nacewa took over the kicking and was on hand to strike the vital blow in the final European club game of his career.
