Leinster secured a bonus point as they kept a stirring Glasgow Warriors comeback at bay in their final regular season match at the RDS this season.
The Irish province's penultimate game of the Guinness Pro 12 regular season resulted in a 31-30 win over the Scottish side with Joey Carbery kicking the winning penalty with six minutes to go.
Leo Cullen's side had scored three of their tries in the first half with Dominic Ryan, Rory O'Loughlin and Peter Dooley securing those.
Glasgow got their first try of the contest seven minutes after half time when Adam Ashe went over.
But Zane Kirchner responded with a 60th minute try after an excellent offload from Adam Byrne down the right flank.
But tries from Lee Jones and Finn Russell and the latter's conversion saw Glasgow's comeback result in a 30-28 lead for the Scottish side.
