Highlights, Gallery & Reaction | Munster Women v Connacht Women
6th September 2021 By The Editor
Munster recorded their second bonus-point win of the Vodafone Women’s Interprovincial Championship on Saturday night after they produced an excellent second-half performance to emerge 31-7 victors against Connacht and set up a winner-takes-all clash with Leinster in Dublin next weekend.
There was very little separating the sides throughout the majority of this game as Connacht’s resolute defensive effort frustrated Munster with the sides level 7-7 up until the 58th minute.
That was until the home side scored three quick-fire tries as Nicole Cronin, Stephanie Nunan and Deirbhile Nic a Bhaird crossed the whitewash to add to Clodagh O’Halloran’s first-half effort to give Munster some breathing room as the match entered the final 10 minutes.
Aoife Doyle got Munster’s fifth try on the stroke of full-time to cap off an impressive Munster performance.
A great night’s work in front our fans at Musgrave Park 🙌
