Staunton’s penalty pushes Munsters up to third

Willie Staunton has made his name as Young Munster’s match-winner on numerous occasions in the Ulster Bank League this season, and he was at it again on Saturday, steering his side to a 9-7 win over Cork Constitution.

Two successful Staunton penalties early on had Munsters 6-0 in front.

But, in one of their rare incursions inside the Young Munster 22, Cork Con’s Niall O’Driscoll nipped in for his sixth try of the season which out-half Johnny Holland converted.
