Leinster brought their losing streak to an end last night, as they beat Ulster by 19 points to 6 at the RDS. 

They had lost their last two games against Northampton and Edinburgh, but managed to pick up a vital win to get back to winning ways.

Number 8 Jordi Murphy grabbed the game's only try in the first half while outhalf Jimmy Gopperth grabbed the conversion and 4 penalties.

It wasn’t all good news though for head coach Matt O’Connor who watched flanker Sean O’Brien coming off with a dislocated shoulder. He is now a major doubt for Leinster's remaining Heineken Cup pool games.

Leinster now face Connacht next Saturday in the Sportsgrounds, before their final two Heineken Cup games.
