Match Commentary
Liam Williams, by the way, has failed his HIA.
We are then treated to some handbags as tempers fray.
Leinster retain possession and Richard Wigglesworth is lucky that Jerome Garces decides a penalty is enough for a late shoulder charge on Sexton.
Some concern for the visitors as Vunipola required attention for a bloody nose following that Farrell penalty. The England prop is still on for the moment.
This has been an electric start from the hosts.
Ten of the Ireland 23 that beat England at Twickenham a fortnight ago start for Leinster against the back-to-back European champions in what could be the tie of the round.
