Munster guaranteed a play-off berth in the United Rugby Championship and boosted their hopes of a home quarter-final thanks to a 42-21 bonus-point win over Cardiff at Musgrave Park.
Cardiff silenced the Cork crowd with early tries from Seb Davies and Rey Lee-Lo, but Munster hit back before the interval with a brace from Mike Haley and Thomas Ahern’s score on the stroke of half-time.
