Leinster Rugby are headed back to the Investec Champions Cup final after surviving a late push from Toulon in Dublin.

Leinster built enough of a cushion in the second half, with Garry Ringrose and Caelan Doris both scoring after halftime, then held on as Toulon made things uncomfortable late.

Andrew Porter, Doris and Jamison Gibson-Park were among the standouts for Leinster, while Toulon fought back through Baptiste Serin and Gaël Dréan to keep the semifinal alive in the closing minutes.

Leinster now move on to the Investec Champions Cup final, where they will face the winner of Bordeaux vs. Bath.
