Relieved Munster only do minimum
Munster’s main concern was the avoidance of injury against a fiery bunch embodied by the ever-batty Mauro Bergamasco. And given events four years ago when Tomás O’Leary fell at the final hurdle prior to boarding the Lions jet, there was a collective sigh of relief when Paul O’Connell came through the full 80 minutes unscathed.
Johnny Murphy set the ball rolling on five minutes with a try straight off the training paddock after Denis Hurley and Casey Laulala combined well in midfield to set him free wide on the touchline.
