European Cup Round-up: Perpignan secured a predictable bonus-point 45-0 win at home to Calvisano yesterday but failed to score enough tries to get a home quarter-final.

The French heavyweights needed nine tries at Stade Aime Giral to sneak past Munster in the last-eight rankings but managed only six against the Italians in front of 11,500 fans.

Young backs Mathieu Bourret and David Marty bagged tries as Perpignan threw the ball wide from the opening whistle. Flanker Bernard Goutta added a third and right winger Christophe Manas secured the bonus point on the half-hour.

Replacement fullback Frederic Cermeno kept his side on track with a try early in the second spell but Calvisano dug deep and kept the home side tryless until Manas scored again in the last move of the match.

Leeds clinched second spot in Pool Two with a seven-try, bonus-point demolition of sorry Cardiff, but Bath's defeat to Leinster denied them a place in the quarter-finals.

The 48-3 rout did not enable the Tykes to leapfrog group winners Perpignan but it meant they climbed to 20 points and a try tally of 18.

Andre Snyman (2), Tom Palmer, Tom Biggs, man of the match Justin Marshall and David Doherty went over for tries for Leeds, while their other five-pointer came from a penalty try.

Cardiff, who finished third in the group, were a shambles for much of the encounter, even the legendary Jonah Lomu shackled into anonymity.

In Leinster's pool, Glasgow salvaged a last-gasp dose of European pride as they produced a stunning finish to outgun Bourgoin 50-35 in a Firhill try-spree.

The Scots turned on the style after a shaky mid-match spell and piled up seven touchdowns to create a club competition record.

On Saturday, Biarritz scored six tries in a 43-13 win over Saracens to top Pool Four, while defending Champions Toulouse finished with 25 points at the top of Pool Six following 49-42 victory at Llanelli.
