Bordeaux-Bègles Claims Second Consecutive Champions Cup Title

Pierre-Bordeaux-Bègles secured their second consecutive Champions Cup title on Saturday, defeating Ireland's Leinster with a score of 41-19. Despite an initial try from the Irish side, UBB dominated the match with five tries by halftime, leading 35-7 and effectively eliminating any suspense for the remainder of the game. UBB, relentless and powerful throughout, became the sixth team to achieve back-to-back titles in this competition, adding to the ranks of French teams Toulon, who achieved a triple win from 2013 to 2015, and La Rochelle, champions in both 2022 and 2023. This remarkable victory took place on May 23, 2026.
