Anthony Foley: Our patience paid off

Munster coach Anthony Foley cast a cold eye on his team’s 27-19 win over Edinburgh in Friday night’s crucial Pro12 game in Musgrave Park, acknowledging that the visitors from Scotland had wrested the initiative from the home side at significant points in the contest.

“We scored some lovely tries and at times we managed it quite well.

“We let them back into the game after we had big moments and that really took the sting out of those moments. They came out in the second half with intent to hold onto the ball and we struggled to get primary possession.
