(Reuters) - Former New Zealand flyhalf Dan Carter led Racing Metro to a 19-16 win over Leicester in an error-strewn European Champions Cup semi-final in Nottingham, England on Sunday.

Carter kicked 11 points and used all his experience to earn the French side territorial domination in a ferocious contest that sent them into their first final in Europe's premier club competition in which they will play English side Saracens.
