Munster on mission of atonement

European Champions Cup Pool 1

Munster head coach Anthony Foley and captain Peter O’Mahony have signalled all week their determination to make amends for last week’s poor display against Saracens when they take on Sale Sharks in the European Champions Cup “dead rubber” at Thomond Park tomorrow.

In keeping with that ambition, Foley has kept changes to a minimum with all but three of the side that flopped last week starting again as the province strives to avoid a fourth successive defeat in the competition.
