Massive challenge for Munster as teams are named
- Updated: 06/05/2022
IT’S a case of ‘stay with the tried and trusted’ as Munster name their matchday squad for tomorrow’s big game against Stade Toulousain at the Aviva Stadium. Simon Zebo and Keith Earls take the wing shirts with Joey Carbery at ten and Murray starting at nine fill the half-back roles. Peter O’Mahony captains the side despite a knock in training during the week and is joined in the back-row by Alex Kendellen and Jack O’Mahony.
This is by far the biggest test for Munster this season. The French side, with Ntamack at ten and Antoine Dupont pulling the strings at scrum-half, will have to be closed down while the power battles up front will also be crucial. With the Red Army behind them, Munster should have the edge and on recent form they have every chance of advancing to the semi-finals.
