Conor Oliver was immense and deservedly won the man-of-the-match award.
The youngster beat three defenders while racking up an impressive 17 carries.
Meanwhile, short-term signing Jean Deysel, was electric from the off and put in some extremely powerful carries which endeared himself to the Munster faithful.

Fitness may be an issue for Deysel as he faded a little as the game wore on but Munster will be hopeful that he can improve on this over the coming weeks.
The 32-year-old made another monstrous carry soon after the one above which led to James Cronin touching down for Munster's only try of the game.
A positive for Munster fans is that Deysel can play in both the back-row and second-row so he adds a layer of versatility which will be of huge benefit.
It looks to be another bit of shrewd business by Erasmus but Munster will nevertheless be hoping that their talisman Stander will regain his fitness in time for Saracens.Rugby
