Young Munster left with ‘tears in their eyes’ after missing bonus point

Young Munster 22 Lansdowne 3: Young Munster have seldom if ever beaten Lansdowne by 19 points but the sense of disappointment after Saturday’s Ulster Bank AIL game at Clifford Park gave the impression that they were on the wrong end of the 22-3 scoreline.

The hosts needed a bonus point from the game to be sure of a home semi-final against Cork Constitution in Saturday’s semi-final.

However, they came up one try short and with Con sneaking ahead of them with a superior points scoring difference, it means Munsters must now travel to Temple Hill next weekend.
