Williams happy as Ulster hit back

JUST a couple of weeks ago, Munster’s second string side went to Shaw’s Bridge in Belfast and crushed a weakened Ulster opposition.

Ulster came to Temple Hill yesterday with a much stronger side and emerged as deserved victors with an accomplished performance in a much tighter game.

Ulster coaching director Matt Williams beamed as he welcomed the win but admitted: “It was a typical Irish provincial derby, with little or nothing between the sides. It wasn’t always pretty but it was always pretty intense,” he said.
