The summary of the victory of Stade Toulousain at the end of the suspense against Leinster in the Champions Cup final

Thanks for following it. We part with the tears of Antoine Dupont after this victory for Toulouse at the end of an incredible final.

The author of Toulouse’s only try of the match also spoke after this victory: “We had a lot of fun in this match. We wanted to play for us today but obviously, when you see the Toulouse people who are making the trip, the Place du Capitole which is full, you always have the extra soul thanks to the supporters. This one will really be for everyone. »

The Toulouse third row reacted to this victory at the microphone of France 2: “We knew that it was going to be a standoff until the end, that we were not going to have to give up. We managed with a lot of heart and solidarity to hold on and make them break in overtime. It’s awesome. We believed in it until the end and we managed to make the difference. »

At the end of a stifling encounter, Stade Toulousain won a sixth European title. Matthis Lebel scored the first try of the match in overtime.

The ball lands in Keenan’s hands, as the final whistle sounds. The Irish recover one last penalty.

The Rouge et Noir continue to resist at the very end of the match, with a sixth coronation in their sights. Trailing by nine points, the Irish have nothing left to lose (31-22).

Van der Flier commits a forward contact, the Toulouse will recover a scrum in their 22 meters.

The Irish have the advantage and make their return to the Toulouse 40 meters.

Five minutes from the end of this interminable match, the Rouge et Noir took a nine-point lead thanks to Ramos.

The French hooker offers a +9 ball to Ramos, which would allow Toulouse to regain some air in inferiority.

Doris is penalized on the Irish side and offers Ramos the opportunity to restore his team’s six-point lead. The French international doesn’t tremble against the poles: the ball grazes the left post, but it goes in!

If the teams are unable to decide in extra time, the winner will be determined as follows: (a) the team which has scored the most tries during the match (including during extra time); (b) or, in the event of a tie, by a penalty shootout.

What a finale! The Irish come back to three points before the second half of this overtime.

Mr. Carley reconsiders his decision and grants the try to Van der Flier, believing that the ball hit the ground despite Toulouse’s hands. The finale is completely restarted!

Cruel scenario for Toulouse, who seem to concede a try from the best player in the world 2022 just before the break in this extension. The referee considers it invalid but calls on the video.

Toulouse is now playing at a disadvantage, as the first half of this extension comes to an end. The Rouge et Noir are ten points ahead (25-15).

The Toulouse second row is logically punished for this dangerous gesture, shoulder to head. The two teams will play 14 against 14 for a few seconds.

The referees ask to see the video for a dangerous play by the Australian on Healy. The color of the cardboard remains to be determined…

Mr Carley signals a penalty against Leinster, Ramos tries to take the points and widens the gap by winning his penalty. Ugo Mola’s men are getting closer to the title!

The French rear allows Toulouse to take a seven-point lead! Big blow for the Irish, who are still playing with one player less.

The first try of this suffocating final is scored by the French winger, after 84 minutes of play. A nice shift from Ramos for Chocobares and the Argentinian transmits to Lebel who will flatten the ball. Finally !

It passes to the right of the poles for the Toulouse rear. We remain at 15-15.

The Irish winger is penalized for a voluntary forward at the start of this extension. The Toulouse team will play 15 against 14 for ten minutes.

This is the third time in history that the Champions Cup final has gone into overtime, each time with Toulouse. The Rouge et Noir won in 1996 against Cardiff and in 2005 against Stade français.

The two teams having failed to decide between themselves in 80 minutes (15-15), there will therefore be an extension in this very indecisive final. Two ten-minute halves await the players.

Frawley attempts a drop a few seconds from the end of regulation time but it goes to the left of the poles. What tension!

What an end to the meeting! Frawley wins his penalty. The substitute opener allows the Irish to return to equality once again.

It was Frawley who appeared in front of the posts to try to get back to 15-15 three minutes from the end of the match.

Fighting in the air with Keenan, Ntamack commits a forward 25 meters from his goal.

Intractable in defense this Saturday afternoon, the Rouge et Noir must still hold on as the final whistle approaches.

The Toulouse captain recovered the ball while the Irish were in their ninth phase of play. The atmosphere is unbreathable at the end of the match.

Substitute at kick-off, Ramos does not miss 40 meters from the poles on the left and allows his team to take the lead in a suffocating end to the match!

The Irish are punished by a ball carried by Toulouse. The penalty will be attempted by Ramos, who entered in the 59th minute of play to replace Costes.

While Leinster had just completed ten phases of play, the Rouge et Noir regained possession and Mathis Lebel came to flatten the ball in the Irish in-goal but his foot was in touch. It didn’t go far for Toulouse… We remain at 12-12.

Still no try in this meeting, but Leinster and Toulouse go blow for blow. 15 minutes from the end of normal time, Byrne brought the Irish back up to speed with a penalty 10 meters against the poles.

Byrne finds the touchline ten meters from the opposing goal, on the left. Danger for Toulouse, who still lead 12-9 thanks to their heroic defense.

The referee signals a broken arm in favor of the Irish after a scrum 45 meters from the Toulouse goal.

Facing the poles, the Scottish full-back allows his team to take the lead in this final which is still so closed!

Eighth phase of play for Dupont and his teammates who are progressing with difficulty. Leinster and penalty, Kignhorn will try to give the advantage back to Toulouse.

After suffering the lightning of Leinster, the Rouge et Noir moved forward but struggled against the Irish defense, which was well established.

After a nice interception from Chocobares, his captain stamped his foot behind the Irish to give himself some air. The two teams are still tied (9-9).

The Toulouse captain manages to clear the ball but it is caught by Keenan.

Admirable in defense, the Toulouse residents continue to resist the advance of Leinster. Scrum to follow 5 meters from the Toulouse goal.

The ball circulates well in the Irish hands but the Toulouse defense is holding up for the moment.

Kinghorn and Byrne have responded to each other since the start of the match which remains very closed offensively.

For the first time since the start of the match, the Irish came back on level terms thanks to Byrne, always impeccable against the poles.

The Scottish full-back recovers the ball but it is then scraped to the ground by the Irish.

Bryne has just kicked off the second half. It’s back to Tottenham. Toulouse leads 9-6.

The Toulouse team had started this final very well but, for a few millimeters, Dupont’s foot was ruled out and Mallia’s try was not awarded.

The Toulouse fly-half stopped at the France 2 microphone before returning to the locker room: “We defended three quarters of the half, if not the entire first half. We managed to score penalties as soon as we were in their camp but we will have to do more if we want to win. We can’t endure like that for 80 minutes because it will end up breaking at some point. »
