Alex Cuthbert, the Wales international, experienced a significant setback during a match against Munster, as reported by various sources. Cuthbert, who had just scored his first try in 14 months, suffered a devastating hamstring injury while attempting to secure a second try and 2 additional bonus points for Ospreys in the closing moments of the game, leading to their defeat by Munster. This incident occurred with the clock at 80 minutes, highlighting a week of misfortune for Wales rugby. The injury was particularly disheartening for Cuthbert, who had only recently returned to the field after a year-long absence due to injury. This series of events has been described as a new low for the Super Rugby champions, with teammate Gareth Anscombe expressing his speechlessness over the situation.
It was all the more painful for the Welsh international as he has only just returned from a year out through injury. #URC https://t.co/Suq62Ot1wt

Alex Cuthbert’s fate last night summed up a miserable Wales week. Having just scored his first try for 14 months, and with the clock on 80mins, he was sprinting in for a second and 2 @ospreys bonus pts in defeat by @Munsterrugby only for the sniper who shoots hamstrings to strike
