Leicester coach Aaron Mauger is pitted against former Crusaders and New Zealand team-mate Dan Carter when the Tigers face Racing 92 in the Champions Cup semi-final on Sunday. Carter, a veteran of 112 Tests and last years World Rugby Player of the Year, is bidding to lead Racing 92 to their first major European final, and Mauger has urged his players not to give the star playmaker any time on the ball at Nottingham Forests City Ground.Hes never been overawed by any challenge, and its no different now, said Mauger. Hes probably been the difference for Racing this year, even though you dont want to pin too much on one person.Hell back himself to play whats in front of him, but weve got to back ourselves to take that time and space away from him, limit his options and put him under pressure. Carter and Aaron Mauger played together for the All Blacks and the Crusaders Mauger has been widely credited with adding an extra degree of backline flair this season to a Leicester side traditionally known for forward power, and it was on full display as the Tigers smashed Stade Francais 41-13 in the quarter-final earlier in the month.Director of Rugby Richard Cockerill will hope for more of the same as he opts to retain the side that beat Northampton 30-24 in the Aviva Premiership last Saturday.Graham Kitchener makes his 100th appearance for Leicester as he lines up alongside Dom Barrow in the second row, while prop Logovii Mulipola is also in line for his 100th appearance after being included among the replacements.

Were going to enjoy it and give it everything weve got.
