Before kick-off Ulster coach Dan McFarland labelled their trip to Leinster the greatest challenge in club world rugby. Bar set. In the aftermath of their 15-point loss, the obvious question was how close he felt they came to reaching it.

“I thought our try was brilliant,” he said. “Great kick from Jacob. Superb take, he had two on his own kick. He did it against Cardiff a few weeks ago as well! And Billy’s kick to the touchline. That was just a really good try. But at the same time, we made some errors in the backfield as well that gave them access.”
