Take a bow Jordan Larmour.
With Munster pushing their way into the Leinster half after climbing out of a 22-point hole from the first-half, Leinster full-back Jordan Larmour gutted the hosts with one of the tries of the season.
Starting in his first Munster-Leinster derby, Larmour caught the ball just outside his 22 before leaving Sam Arnold in the dirt, Rory Scannell in his wake and Ian Keatley on his stomach.

The try put Leinster up by 15 points, and although Andrew Conway was able to cut the deficit back to 10 points after he finished in the corner following a nice pass from Simon Zebo, the score effectively killed the game off as a contest.
Leinster took an early lead when Dan Leavy fielded an excellent crossfield kick from Ross Byrne to score the first try of the game while Robbie Henshaw finished off a brilliantly worked team try later in the half.
Conor Murray pulled one back for the hosts when he crashed over from close range while James Lowe also won the visitors a penalty try after he was taken out by Andrew Conway just metres short of the line.
Munster hit back early in the second-half with tries through Ian Keatley and Conway, but Leinster were able to hold on for the win following Larmour’s superb individual effort.
