WATCH: Johann van Graan on Castres defeat

Munster Head Coach Johann van Graan focused on his team’s missed chances rather than controversial moments in the Champions Cup defeat to Castres last weekend.

Van Graan stayed diplomatic on the controversial incidents that have seen Rory Kockott and Marc-Antoine Rallier cited for alleged eye gouging and a dangerous tackle.

“I had a good look at the game. We left some chances out there. If we took them it might have been a different result but it isn’t.

“We have got to keep improving on those. Like i said, we would love the extra three points for the win but that wasn’t to be. We got our bonus point and we will take that and move forward.”

The Munster Head Coach also spoke about this Friday’s game with Ulster and players returning from injury.
