The province paid the price for an error-ridden display in Limerick.
Ciarán Kennedy Report s from Thomond Park Munster 10 Glasgow Warriors 17 THERE WILL BE no Irish involvement in this season’s URC final after Glasgow Warriors ground out a hard-fought 17-10 semi-final win over Munster at Thomond Park, hours after the Bulls had proved too strong for Leinster in South Africa.
In the opening 40 they fought hard but lacked the necessary incision in the Glasgow half, Crowley scoring their only points of the half from the tee in the 11th minute. Then the Munster errors started. An overthrown lineout allowed Glasgow to counter and powerful centre Sione Tuipulotu went close before a Mike Haley turnover got Munster out of jail.
Munster continued to be their own worst enemy. Fineen Wycherley was pinged for not releasing as another attack come to nothing, before Craig Casey knocked the ball on at the base of the scrum. O’Mahony was heavily involved throughout and to no surprise, was at the heart of the niggle that surrounded every battle in the air and on the ground. One of his last actions of the half was to take an arm to the face from Matt Fagerson – the Glasgow flanker yellow-carded after tempers flared near the tunnel.
