WATCH: Rory Scannell on Saracens strengths and previous semi finals

Munster head into today’s Champions Cup semi final as underdogs against a Saracens side hoping to reach their fourth final in six years.

Rory Scannell highlighted some of the English side’s strengths in the lead up to the game and knows that Munster will have to be at their best to have any hope of reaching this year’s decider.

“They are quality opposition and are an international club side that have so many English internationals in their team.

“They have a big physical pack and that’s going to be a massive challenge for us in the set piece and they have a quality back line as well.

“They have threats all over the field really and we are going to have to be on our best form to get a result.”
