Munster 23Cardiff 20John Fallon reports from Thomond ParkMUNSTER MAINTAINED their winning start to the season as Clayton McMillan tasted victory in his first game in charge at Thomond Park, but they were pushed all the way by a gutsy Cardiff side. The sides were deadlocked at 5-5 at the end of a scrappy opening half where both sides failed to take chances. That should have been the catalyst for Munster to take charge, but it was Cardiff who finished the half strongly. Crowley’s conversion put Munster in front for the first time, but Cardiff hit back with a quality try. Cardiff: Tries: T Bowen (3), J Adams.
