Glasgow Warriors head coach Sean Lineen wants to keep the club’s European dream alive by beating Bath.

Although the team’s Heineken Cup qualification hopes are over, the Firhill side can only qualify for the Amlin Challenge Cup with a win over Ian McGeechan’s men.

Glasgow defeated the Aviva Premiership side at home and Lineen believes his players can take heart from their 23-16 defeat to Leinster.

"We've got to beat Bath," he said.

"It's out of our control now. There are a couple of things that have to happen in a couple of the other groups for us to be involved in the Amlin.

"We've got to make sure we go down there with the right mindset because Bath are a very good team."

Lineen believes his team’s performances in European rugby’s premier competition have enhanced their reputation throughout the continent.

"Leinster are not the Heineken Cup champions for nothing," Lineen said.

"They make you fight most of the way and I thought we stood toe-to-toe with them for long periods of the game.

"There are a couple of things we need to improve on. Against these guys you've got to work incredibly hard for every single second of every single game, with the ball and in defence as well.

"I thought defensively we were outstanding."
