Johann van Graan: 'That was a class game of rugby'

Munster boss thrilled with his side's display in a thrilling 38-27 win over Cardiff Blues

Munster will send Dan Goggin for a scan on his injured shoulder today, collateral damage from a pulsating Guinness PRO14 win over Cardiff Blues in Thomond Park that was praised by Johann van Graan as “a great advertisement for rugby”.

Munster and the Blues kicked off the PRO14’s new Monday Night Rugby schedule of games in style, delivering an eight-try treat for television viewers with van Graan’s prevailing 38-27 to extend their winning start to the season to three games.
