European rugby united in grief this weekend, following the untimely passing of Anthony Foley.

The scenes at Thomond Park on Saturday afternoon were extraordinary, and were followed by a spine-tingling rendition of Fields of Athenry at Ravenhill, while Leinster paid tribute to Foley by donning special t-shirts ahead of kick-off against Montpellier.

Foley was remembered before kick-off at all games across the European rugby weekend, and the official twitter account of the Champions Cup has put together a compilation of them all in this video below.
