Bilbao or bust – will Ulster bounce back with trophy?Image source, InphoImage caption, Ulster are looking to win their first silverware in 20 years against Montpellier in the Challenge Cup finalByAndy GrayBBC Sport NI Journalist in BilbaoPublished27 minutes agoOne game from history.Ulster’s entire season will come down to the biggest 80 minutes of their campaign when they take on Montpellier in the Challenge Cup final.After the final there are no play-offs to look forward to and no second chances.It’s win in Bilbao or bust for their campaign.Richie Murphy’s young side had to watch in despair as they slipped out of the play-off places in the United Rugby Championship for the second year in a row.That meant they missed out on automatic qualification for the Champions Cup next year.But they have a chance to immediately bounce back in the biggest game for the Irish province in 14 years – since Leinster beat them in a Champions Cup decider.Not only would victory end Ulster’s 20-year silverware drought, but it would also earn qualification to Europe’s top tier for next season.There’s a lot on the line, but Ulster have full belief that they can shock the Top 14 side.”We’ve come this far and I think we are a good enough team,” reported Nick Timoney, who added that it will be an “unbelievable honour” to captain the side in the absence of the suspended Iain Henderson.”We’re not just here to go out and give it a crack, we’re in a place as a team where we want to go and win.” Ulster ‘have to fight with everything’ in final
