As a Munster fan, I have to admit that was a fantastic effort by Ulster with 14 men for 50 minutes. They were pretty unlucky to not win it in the end. On the Munster side, scintillating backline play especially by Farrell. But so much indiscipline and silly unforced errors. Should give them some credit for pulling it out of the fire, albeit a bit of luck played a part too

How did they not try a drop goal before half time? Ulster aren't gonna start winning until they start to play smart rugby and take every chance.

Werner Koks stats must be insane, constantly involved. He's hitting more rucks than the flankers and was there to either make the last tackle as Muster scored or when Ulster scored he was latched and driving over. Ulster might do well to make note of his workrate and maybe try get the ball out to his wing rather than endless pick and goes.

I'm used to seeing Munster getting nothing off a ref but thought ref was very poor against Ulster last night as a Munster fan

[JesseVolkwyn]

1:52 why didn't he go for a drop kick instead of punting the ball out?

[davidwalshe]

Farrel is a great signing for Munster. Not farvoff the Irish team a few years back. He might grt in the training squad agter that game. Ulster have some serious players coming through

[iteamy]

Thought that might have been a blow out watching the first minute or so of that but the last minute was a thriller. Top marks to the editor too

[Pfessor_Moriarty]

I watched this match live and couldn't understand how Nash's pass for the 1st try wasn't called forward. Ulster though, yet again just can't defend. They had this win sown up. But teams go thtough them too easily.

[Wapps]

14 v 15 for most of the match, great performance from Ulster.

[Eric-]

Anyone have a picture of the hit on Kok with the last kickoff before Munster score the winning try, looked like a high tackle, but they did not show it again, why not? Great match by Kok, should have been man of the match.

[mrhennessy]

Munster backline were superb today. Good to see Jack pulling the strings inside, taking the ball to the line, bossing the shape of the backline and creating that space out wide. Needs to have a good chat with his kicking tee though.

Forwards left a bit to be desired i reckon. So many breakdowns left unprotected after getting forward momentum. Some of them smack bang in the middle of the park.

Ulster forwards were physically dominant in attack and kept them in it. Defence out wide was poor though. Get that defence sorted and an injection from the forces of Hendy, Balacoune and that unreal bench impact they had today and they'll be right up there.

Two years in a row Munster beat Ulster in the final minutes up in ravenhill

[AdamGordon]

Any chance of at least describing Munster's first half try? Presumably Farrell scored it.

[jmo]

The sending off was harsh but Ulster did really well considering. Scot Wilson was pretty good. Harry Sheridan, Postlethwaite are all extremely promising. But anytime Munster put the foot down and went forward they seemed to score with ease.

[michaelmclaggan]

Tom Farrell scored that last try with the clock on 78:10. That means that Crowley had until 79:40 to take the kick. There should've been time for the restart. Or was it one of those cases where the stadium clock and clock on screen were not synchronised? Either way, someone screwed up.

[noela]

Ulster lost that game at the red card, although they didn't lie down! For Munster to win by 3 points against what lots of people on social media are calling Ulster "an awful team" with "no attack" and "a shocking defence" doesn't make Munster look great really! They only had to beat 14 men and had 50 mins to manage it?! Crowley had a poor enough game for an international 10. A few of the young Ulster lads had good games, McNabney probably had his best outing so far.

[StfanoCorsini]

A match worth the entire ticket price.

[Ouiskey]

Someone please explain how that warrants a penalty, let alone a red. Because he landed on his leg? The impact was on the body, do players now have to control where/how they fall?

If that was Leinster you wouldnt hear the end of it.

[DJCam]

Goal line defence is annoying to me at this point...the TMO should literally be looking for all men behind the line an no defenders in sprint position with hands on the floor...as soon as you see that it should just be given as a try
