Heineken Cup wrap
Jan 20,2013
Leicester, Munster and Saracens all notched up wins in the last round of the Heineken Cup to fill the remaining quarter-final spots.
Saracens booked themselves a home quarter-final in the Heineken Cup after sweeping past Edinburgh 40-7 at Vicarage Road on Sunday.
Three Owen Farrell penalties and Chris Ashton's first try took them into a 14-7 lead at the interval. Further touchdowns from Ashton, Matt Stevens, Charlie Hodgson and Chris Wyles sealed the five points.
Meanwhile, Simon Zebo scored a hat-trick of tries as Munster swept past 14-man Racing Metro and knocked Leinster out of the Heineken Cup in the process.
Rob Penney's men needed a bonus-point win at Thomond Park in order to leapfrog their Irish rivals into the second best runners-up spot.
And finally, Leicester Tigers clinched the final Heineken Cup quarter-final spot at the expense of Toulouse after edging the winner-takes-all Pool Two clash 9-5 at Welford Road.

Which of the Heinken Cup teams have most South African players? I guess that the final will be between Cermont and Quins - but anything could happen and a game in a snowstorm like yesterday could produce weird results.
