Johann Van Graan anger as Reds self-destruct

No wonder Johann van Graan looked downbeat.

Munster’s 25-18 defeat to Cardiff Blues in the Welsh capital saw the Thomond Park outfit produce a poor first-half performance which ultimately cost them any chance of victory.

In truth, it was a display at odds with Munster’s usual high standards. There were basic, unexplained errors aplenty and an inability to do the nuts and bolts to the required standard.
