Speaking after the game Foley said, “There's a lot of relief in the dressing-room, you saw a lot of nerves out there, there was a lot of indecision and young guys who were carrying the weight of having to qualify for the Champions Cup.

“Hopefully, the kind of experience they have gained in the last couple of weeks will help them in the future when hopefully they can be challenging for trophies instead of just trying to qualify for the Champions Cup.

“We have been missing a lot of players, Mark Chisholm, Peter O'Mahony, BJ Botha, Denis Hurley, Felix Jones, there are five players straight off who weren't with us and it is understandable that were lacking players. But the guys who came in did really well for us.

“We did really well in this game at half-time to be 14-12 ahead, it gave us some breathing space which was vital because we didn't hold on to the ball that well in the first-half.

“It is always better to be in possession because then your actions dictate the game. Scarlets have a high tempo game but we executed on the back of a couple of turnovers which was a big help.”

Conor Murray spoke exclusively to MunsterRugby.ie immediately after the game and made special mention of the wonderful support at Thomond Park on Saturday.
