Michael Bradley admits lucky win

Edinburgh coach Michael Bradley admits that luck played a part in his side's historic 19-14 Heineken Cup over Toulouse this afternoon.

Edinburgh coach Michael Bradley has admitted that his side rode their luck during their historic 19-14 Heineken Cup win over French side Toulouse.

Edinburgh became the first Scottish side to reach the semi-finals of the Heineken Cup by coming from behind against one of the powerhouses of European rugby, and Bradley believes that his side's confidence shone through.

"We have the ability to trouble anybody on our day and there was plenty of confidence in the side," said Bradley.

"We've played a lot of good rugby in this competition, and under pressure we've been able to deliver in critical moments in matches in the pool stages.

"And I think we rode our luck a little bit in it as well. Today was very similar to that and we were on the right side of the result."

The two remaining quarter-finals, Munster vs. Ulster and Saracens vs. Clermont Auvergne, will take place tomorrow.
