Munster Have To Settle For Losing Bonus
18th December 2010 By Munster Rugby
Two second half Dan Biggar penalties was enough to give Ospreys a 19-15 win over Munster in front of a 12,000+ crowd at the Liberty Stadium.
It was 13-10 to the home side at half time. They then went 16-10 up before Keith Earls scored a try, Ronan O'Gara's conversion coming back off an upright.
Biggar kicked a further penalty and right at the death almost denied Munster the bonus point as they attacked their line after turnover ball had taken the action from one end of the field to the other.
