Ian Costello: 'Technically, there were just a few things in terms of accuracy that cost us'

"We move onto a really exciting game next week, a derby game in a new venue where we haven't played before, and it's a must win game now."

IMPROVED PERFORMANCE: Munster director of rugby Ian Costello was happy with the improved performance but accuracy at key times cost them.

Munster almost gatecrashed the Glasgow Warriors remembrance party, but the young team ultimately came up short by the tiniest of margins. No wonder Ian Costello, the director of rugby, was struggling to deal with his mixed emotions.

"Absolutely gutted," was his first reaction. Then he took a more philosophical turn. "It's one of those ones. When we look back, I think we'll be very satisfied with the effort, the physicality, the reaction after the previous game. Technically, there were just a few things in terms of accuracy that cost us. A bit more accurate and I think we'd have got the result."
