Bordeaux retain Champions Cup

Bordeaux Bègles secured their second consecutive Champions Cup title with a convincing 41-19 win over Leinster in the final in Bilbao.

The French side dominated from the outset, scoring five tries in the first half to effectively end the contest before the break.

The result marks a period of unprecedented success for Bordeaux, who have now completed a clean sweep of major European honors this season.

Leinster's defeat represents their fifth loss in a Champions Cup final in the last eight seasons, continuing a streak of heartbreak for the Irish province.
