A touch of class from Leinster as they wear Munster red in honour of Anthony Foley

The province wore shirts with a number 8 on the back before their clash with Montpellier earlier.

FIERCE RIVALS ON the field, united by grief off it.

Leinster paid a lovely tribute to Anthony Foley ahead of their Champions Cup game in Montpellier this afternoon by wearing Munster red as they emerged from the dressing rooms.

The t-shirt featured Foley’s initials on the front of it and a number 8 adorning the back. It was a touch of class from the province and a show of support for their southern rivals.
