Heineken Cup: tutte le gare del sabato, tra pareggi e drop dell’ultimo secondo

Aironi a parte, e in attesa di Treviso, cosa è successo nelle prime partite del primo turno dell’Heineken Cup 2011/2012?
Edimburgo corsara sul campo dei London Irish, con gli scozzesi che vincono in rimonta 20-19. L’Ulster supera Clermont mentre Montpellier ferma sul pareggio i campioni in carica del Leinster. Altra partita intensissima è quella tra Munster e Saints, con gli inglesi che si vedono sfuggire tra le dita una vittoria in trasferta all’ultimo secondo grazie a un drop di O’Gara, arrivata in un’azione giunta alla quarantesima fase!
Infine doppia vittoria gallese sui club francesi, con Ospreys che batte Biarritz e Scarlets che supera Castres.
