Boudjellal: Munster was toughest test

Toulon’s billionaire owner Mourad Boudjellal yesterday paid tribute to Munster for pushing his troops to the limit in their quest to secure back-to-back Heineken Cup titles.

Boudjellal rarely gives credence to opponents but he was magnanimous in his post-match interview as Toulon sweated for a 24-16 victory over the out and out underdogs.

“May I firstly congratulate Munster on giving us a very good game and say thanks to them; it was probably the toughest game we have played this season. They are a very good side and their tradition in this tournament was proved today.
