Leinster, who have now lost five Champions Cup finals since 2019, were totally outplayed in the Spanish heat and, despite moving 7-0 ahead, fell 35-7 behind by the half-time break. Indeed, Bordeaux played with a pace, skill and power that Leinster were no match for, scoring tries through scrum-half Maxime Lucu, wings Pablo Uberti and Louis Bielle-Biarrey (two) and centre Yoram Moefana. Lucu converted all five off the tee in a marvellous kicking performance and also added two second-half penalties. Leinster scored tries through wing Tommy O'Brien, lock Joe McCarthy and centre Garry Ringrose, but were left to reflect on their heaviest final defeat.
