Global Results - 3 May

When people complain about the deleterious effect of the experimental law variations point them at two matches – The Hurricanes vs the Blues, which was played under Super 14 laws, and that thrilling, agonising, compelling semifinal between Leicester Tigers and Cardiff Blues.

After normal time, the scored were 26-all. At the end of an exhausting extra time, the scores were 26-all. Then came that unsatisfying rugby novelty, a penalty shoot-out and Leicester won it 7-6 to play Leinster in the Final of the 2009 Heineken Cup.

Uruguay won the South American Championship and go to the next round of Rugby World Cup qualifying, joining Canada and the USA.

Russia won in Hanover to end the Division 1 of the European Nations Cup for this half of the comeptition.

In Nairobi Romania won the Junior World Trophy.
