Mighty Munster outgun Glasgow Warriors in fierce battle

Munster extended their current winning streak to six after defeating Glasgow Warriors at Scotstoun in round 10 of the Guinness Pro12, but the Thomond Park men had to thank the quick thinking and accuracy of Ian Keatley, whose 77th minute drop goal gave the visitors victory at the death.

The men in red had looked the likely winners in the first half, with a ferociously strong performance by the forwards and unyielding defence that seemed to snuff the life out of Glasgow’s attack. No less impressive was Munster’s offensive game, where Andrew Coway, in particular, at full back was full of inventive running.

Munster led 13-3 at the break and seemed to be set for a comfortable win, only for Glasgow to switch the balance of fortune with two second-half tries, but failure to convert the second of these scores ultimately cost the home side victory.
