Match Commentary

81'+1		16-25 End of second half
80'		FULL TIME at Welford Road and Munster make it back-to-back wins over Tigers with a nine-point victory in a bruising encounter.#LEIvMUN 🏆 pic.twitter.com/YNvt6g4idS — Leicester Tigers (@LeicesterTigers) December 17, 2017
80'		FULL TIME -- Quick full time review: Munster deserved the victory but Leicester largely had themselves to blame. Cole gifted Munster five penalties alone in the first half and then was subsequently binned. CJ Stander brilliant for Munster with 19 carries, while Tuliagi, on his return, didn't do too much of note besides nearly grabbing a very late try for the Tigers. O'Mahony played well as well.
