We LOVE Knockout Rugby! Champions Cup Last Eight All Set

For The Love Of Rugby

Ben Youngs and Dan Cole love knockout rugby, and they’ve spent Easter weekend watching eight games in the Investec Champions Cup - the greatest club competition in the world. 


In this episode, Bordeaux gave the performance of the wekeend, but what makes them and Toulouse the best sides in Europe? Bath beat Saracens to set up a mouth-watering all-English quarter-final against Northampton Saints. 


Edinburgh give one of the performances of their season, but ultimately lose to Leinster in Dublin. There’s late drama in Toulon and Glasgow where the South African sides put up a fight, but can’t get over the line. 


And Harlequins v Sale happened. It wasn’t great, mainly thanks to Storm Dave, but Sale at least got the job done. 


For The Love Of European Rugby is presented by Jaecoo - official automotive partner of the Investec Champions Cup and EPCR Challenge Cup.
