Leinster turn the ball over and go through the backs again with Macken and Fanning continuing to break tackles and gain metres.. Eventually they win a penaly and Gopperth will go for the posts.

Leinster win a scrum in their own half, and spread the ball out to the backs but they run out of pitch and Coughlan-Murray is eventually tackled into touch.

Zebre now begin to get going in this half after more strong running from Number 8 Vunisa.

What a fantastic run from Substitute Luke Mcgrath with his first touch of the game. he picks the ball up from the ruck and goes on a run getting past 4 players and is eventually brought down by Trevisan 5 Metres from the line. The attack eventually leads to nothing. Close call for Zebre.

He can play everywhere really! Haha!

Madigan to come on at 10/12 and score under the posts

Haimona gets the second half underway here. A huge second half for the Italian side looking for a shock win this evening.

The teams make their way out onto the field for the second half.

@KatieBoylan: Madigan will most certainly get a run out tonight. He is a man who can play so many positions so they might take off Gopperth and bring him on there or they could put in at first centre or even play him at fullback.

A very competitive first half here at the Stadio XXV Aprile as Leinster lead by 5 at the break. A very sloppy first half, that must be said with both sides making far too many mistakes at the breakdown and chances far and few. Zebre will be happy with their first half showing especially with the start they made with van Schalkwyk going over after 15 minutes. But Leinster are Champions for a reason and they reacted brilliantly with Cooney going over after some great work by Jordi Murphy. They were not many opportunities for both sides after that until Gopperth struck a penalty on the 40 minute mark. A very exciting second half to come so don't go anywhere and stay with us here at UR for further updates and analysis.
