all black barrett helps leinster into champions cup semis with thrashing of glasgow

New Zealand centre Jordie Barrett was pivotal as four-time winners Leinster hammered Glasgow 52-0 on Friday to reach the Champions Cup semi-finals.

Barrett played a big role in eight tries scored by the Irish province in the second-highest winning margin for a quarter-final in the tournament's 29-year history.

The 28-year-old provided a deft pass in the build-up to Max Deegan's 13th-minute try before the back-rower claimed his double with five minutes to play.

Leinster underlined their title credentials with another convincing win, having trounced Harlequins 62-0 in last weekend's last 16.
