It won’t get any easier, says Anthony Foley

There will be no let-up for Munster in the coming weeks as Anthony Foley strives to turn around a four-game losing run against the toughest of opposition over Christmas and into the new year.

The Munster head coach presided over a fourth successive defeat at Leicester Tigers last night as his side once again failed to produce the finishing clinical play their possession deserved.

And Foley had no choice but to look into a list of forthcoming fixtures featuring Pro12 derbies with Leinster on December 27 and Ulster at Ravenhill on January 2 before a Champions Cup home and away double header with French champions Stade Francais.
