Munster head coach Graham Rowntree admitted he was “hugely disappointed” after seeing his side crash out of the Heineken Champions Cup with a 50-35 defeat to the Sharks in Durban.
The visitors had no answer to their opponents’ forward power as the South Africans ran in four tries in the first 18 minutes of the second half, turning their 17-14 interval lead into a 43-14 advantage.
Munster did score five tries, but two came late on when the game was already beyond them, while the Sharks ran in seven of their own.
