WATCH: Johann van Graan on Munster’s travelling support and the vibe in camp

Munster face Edinburgh in a crunch Champions Cup quarter final on Saturday in Murrayfield buoyed by the knowledge that they will be backed as usual by a vociferous travelling Red Army.

The notorious ’16th Man’ has been a key cog in Munster’s storied European journey to date and head coach Johann van Graan is expecting the same in the Scottish capital on Saturday.

“I heard there is 10,000 Munster supporters going over to Edinburgh on Saturday and that’s brilliant.

“That’s the incredible thing about Munster and the Champions Cup. We appreciate the support so much and whether we play home or away, our fans are always brilliant in supporting this team.

“I’m sure there will be a lot of incredible stories over the next week as to how people get there, the experience of the game, but our focus will be on executing on the field and preparing well.”
