In a tense match at Aviva Stadium, Leinster secured a 21-16 victory over Munster in the URC derby. The first half saw Leinster take the lead with tries from Jamison Gibson-Park and Dan Sheehan. Despite a strong effort from Munster, including a Jack Crowley-inspired performance, it wasn't enough as Leinster's Jordan Larmour scored a decisive try. The match also saw an injury to Ross Byrne and a tackle error by Garry Ringrose, both of which were discussed by Leinster boss Leo Cullen.
