China to help red army fly the flag

DIE-HARD Munster rugby fans are going farther than most to get their hands on prized tickets for the Heineken European Cup final against Biarritz.

Ticket-starved fans began arriving at the French side’s stadium, Stade Aguilera, yesterday where tickets for the Cardiff game were readily available.

Phil O’Brien from Lisnagraw, in Co Limerick, and Richard Murphy, from Blackrock, Co Cork, snapped up their tickets yesterday.
