Flying Fijians number 8 Netani Talei helped his Edinburgh team to become the first Scottish side to reach the Heineken cup finals after beating four times champions Toulouse 19-14.

Timoci Matanavou scored a brilliant solo try for Toulouse but it was not enough to save his French side in front of 37,881 fans - a record crowd for a Scottish club game.

Talei and Matanavou are both nominated for the European rugby player of the year.

Toulouse boasts some French test players like Yannick Jauzion, IRB player of the year Thiery Dusatouir and William Servat.

Edinburgh will now play either Munster or Ulster at Dublin's Aviva Stadium on the 28th of April.
