Paris' Stade de France has been selected as the venue for the 2010 Heineken Cup final. The match will take place on May 22 and will be the third final to be staged in France. Bath beat Brive to win the 1998 final in Bordeaux and Leicester triumphed over Stade Francais at the Parc des Princes in Paris in 2001. President of the European Rugby Cup (ERC) Jean-Pierre Lux said: "We are delighted that the Paris 2010 Heineken Cup final will be played at the magnificent Stade de France, the venue of the 2007 Rugby World Cup final."
