A tough one to take.
At half-time in Limerick, Munster were cruising, with converted tries from Tadhg Beirne, John Hodnett, and Jack Crowley giving them a 21-6 lead.
However, the Stormers began to put their weight around Thomond Park and clawed their way back to within one point after converted scores from Adre Smith and Dylan Maart.
Then came the killer blow.
The home side were looking to put the game to bed with an attacking scrum in the visitor’s half, but off their first-phase move, Jack Crowley’s pullback pass to Craig Casey was intercepted by Ruhan Nel, who sprinted in under the posts in the 72nd minute.

Munster thought they had won the game near the death, but their try was chalked off after Crowley had nailed the conversion.
The final score was 27-21 to the Stormers.
