Thomas Ahern's late try spares Munster's blushes in Treviso
Thomas Ahern's last-gasp try spared Munster's blushes as they fought back from 13-3 down to earn a draw in their BKT United Rugby Championship clash at Benetton Treviso. Munster started the campaign with a bonus-point win over Sharks last week but were largely subdued at the Stadio Monigo, where Rhyno Smith's first-half try looked set to prove the difference. The defending champions came on strong in the closing stages and although Scott Buckley saw his try chalked off for a knock-on, Ahern bundled over and Joey Carbery's conversion evened up the scores.
