Munster’s 39-22 loss against Racing 92 on Sunday means Johann van Graan’s side are in need of a sporting miracle of results are to go their way in round 6 of the Pool games.
Racing’s size and skill were the telling factors in the end and despite holding a 16-11 lead at the break and leading by 3 points heading into the last quarter Munster simply had no match when the floodgates opened.
Tom Savage of Three Red Kings and Raffaele Rocca look back on the game and take a look at where it all went wrong, how it can be put right and where to from here for van Graan and co.
