Rugby: Leinster overcome immense Stormers defensive effort to set up Bulls final

# Rugby: Defending champions Leinster overcame an immense defensive effort from the Stormers to clinch a hard-fought 20-11 United Rugby Championship semifinal win at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday night, to set up a replay of last season’s final against the Bulls at Croke Park. Despite being under constant pressure, the Stormers put up an incredible fight and were right in the game until the final 10 minutes when they were reduced to 13 men and Leinster pulled ahead with a converted try, which sealed the result.
