Irish avoid French in Heineken Cup draw

Former Heineken Cup winners Wasps will entertain Leinster for the first time in the tournament’s history, while Munster face a difficult away tie against Welsh challengers Llanelli Scarlets in this season's quarter-finals.

Leicester's reward for their historic victory over holders Munster in Limerick yesterday is a clash against French Championship leaders Stade Francais, the club they beat to be crowned 2001 European champions.
