Munster 35 Connacht 33 - The Commentary

Connacht suffered defeat in their opening game of the United Rugby Championship but produced one of their best ever performances in Thomond Park on Saturday afternoon.

Munster may have won the game by two points but it was the first time that Connacht had ever scored a bonus try at the Limerick venue.

Here is the commentary of what could be one of the games of the season from Rob Murphy and William Davies.
