WARBURTON IN LOVE WITH SAINTS' BRAVERY
Lawrence Dallaglio pointed out that Saints need to work on making metres through the forwards, but really today is about celebration as they overcame Munster in cinch Stadium at Franklin's Gardens first Champions Cup knockout game since 2000.
That year Northampton went on to win it all too, and Sam Warburton told our highlights show what makes them so special this time around:
"It’s the courage to go for it when the score is in the balance, to go from deep, the accuracy. In the backline you want to overload one player and Saints just got it perfectly.
17:50
MAN OF THE MOMENT
George Hendy produced this ridiculous finish to seal the win for Northampton, and caught up with us post-game:
"We always want to beat our first defender if we can, we put a lot of work and now we’re seeing the rewards to it."

MOUTH-WATERING TIE
There's a lot of competition, but Leinster v La Rochelle may be the game of next weekend. The Irishmen won 16-9 at the Stade Marcel Deflandre in the pool stage but that will count for nothing when they meet at 17:30 GMT next Saturday, live on TNT Sports and discovery+.

Lawrence Dallaglio praised his game management in particular as the 25-year-old continues to add to his game every season, every month even:

FT
FULL-TIME: TOULOUSE 31-7 RACING 92
How'd you like that Exeter? Toulouse seal the deal and will take some beating by anyone left in the competition. They just man-handled a Racing side who frankly shot themselves in both feet and the head. Rob Baxter's men will be the next team to try then hands against the French giants, we'll have all the reaction next...
80'
TRY!!! TOULOUSE 31-7 RACING 92 (ROUMAT)
They deserved the final word and they got it! The number eight puts the icing on the gateau and that's a statement of intent from the five-time champions.
Flament impossibly held onto an offload and couldn't be toppled until Roumat had got alongside him to receive the ball.
75'
TRY!!! TOULOUSE 24-7 RACING 92 (BEN AROUS)
The music's blaring, the Toulouse party has started early but it's a Racing try to get some pride back! Eddy Ben Arous took the final pass to dive over and the extras are added, meaning it's just the 17-point defecit with five mintues to go.
74'
GAME LIMPS ON
Merkler gives away a penalty for Racing but it won't matter. Toulouse are heading for the quarter-finals and Exeter Chiefs will be headed to the south of France to face them.
71'
TRY!!! TOULOUSE 24-0 RACING 92 (AKHI)
Toulouse are further ahead! Has been Akhi unsung hero today for the hosts but gets his reward here, flattening the defender to cross under the posts. Kinghorn knocks over the conversion too and this game is over.
