Leinster shook off a lacklustre first half to comfortably beat Sale Sharks 43-13 and book a home Champions Cup semi-final against Toulon.

The four-time European champions scraped to a 7-3 lead at the break, thanks to Dan Sheehan’s converted ninth-minute try, but turned on the style in a one-sided second half.

Tries from Hugo Keenan, Ryan Baird, Rieko Ioane, Tommy O’Brien and Jamie Osborne saw Leinster put distance between themselves and Sale, who scored their only try through Alex Wills with 10 minutes remaining.

Leinster will host Toulon, who edged out Glasgow Warriors 22-19, at Aviva Stadium in May.
