In was a far from impressive opening as Munster fell behind by fourteen points early on against the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein before rallying back to trail 17-7 at the break.
The game turned on Murray’s introduction for the injured James Hart. Munster’s only try of the match followed shortly as Murray broke free close to the line three minutes before half-time and JJ Hanrahan converted to reduce the deficit to 14-7.
Hanrahan got Munster to within one score by landing three penalties before Murray took over the kicking duties in spectacular style to claim a 19-17 win and clinch a home quarter final place.
