After this score Munster dominated the forward exchanges and after a period of continued pressure they were rewarded with a try by Finbarr Aherne which was converted by Declan Cusack. With Munster playing against the harsh conditions in the first half they kept the half time score to 7  7 through some outstanding forward performances from such players as Dave Kilcoyne, Ronan Corkery and Brian OCallaghan.

Munster scored their second try on the 62nd minute and Ian Cross grounded the ball after an impressive backline move. Declan Cusack converted from in front of the posts. Munsters defence won this game and the players who were the most impressive in this area were Murray Kinsella, Dave Foley, Ken Hanley and Mike Lenihan. All the Munster Replacements were used and all stood up to the task they were set. The USA applied considerable pressure in the last 10 minutes but they were unable to break the Munster defence.

Munster finished the winners at 14  7. The man of the match award went to an inspirational Pat ORegan with high recognition going to the Munster captain Dave Foley who led the team with another quality game.

Finally a special word of thanks to the Young Munster RFC, for providing their facilities for this match.
