Leo Cullen humbles Simon Zebo with stinging quip on Munster’s players

Brutal from the Leinster boss.

Defences reigned supreme in Limerick with both sides scoring just one try; Josh van der Flier for Leinster, and Dan Kelly for the home team.

The result leaves holders Leinster sixth in the URC table, five points behind second-place Munster.

After the game, Leinster head coach Leo Cullen spoke to the Premier Sports crew, which included former Munster and Ireland international Simon Zebo.

The ex-winger is known for his Munster bias in his punditry and fervent anti-Leinster banter.

But Cullen had the last laugh yesterday, slagging Zebo over the amount of players in the Munster team who are from Leinster.

He said: "Good few Leinster guys you have done here now as well?"

To which Zebo replied: "We do yeh."

Cullen kept pushing and added: "Is there more Leinster than Limerick guys?

"Let's get the names on paper. Is there more Leinster guys than Limerick guys?

"Are you like a Leinster fan now?"

Zebo could only laugh and say: "That will never happen!"

And Cullen had a point, with six former Leinster players in Munster's match-day 23, and just one Limerick man in Craig Casey.
