Video of the Week: Munster beat Toulouse in last-eight

Adam Kyriacou

It is that time again for Planet Rugby’s Video of the Week, bringing you standout footage you may like.

With the Champions Cup knockout stages upon us, we’ve picked an epic past meeting between two of the sides.

Here we head back in our rugby union time machine to the quarter-finals of 2014 where Munster played host to Toulouse in what turned out to be a high-scoring affair that the Irish province would win 47-23 at Thomond Park.

Scoring Munster’s tries on that day were Keith Earls, Dave Kilcoyne, CJ Stander, Casey Laulala, Simon Zebo and Paul O’Connell, with Hosea Gear and Joe Tekori going over for Toulouse as they crashed out of the competition.

Munster would subsequently progress to the semi-finals but that was as far their journey went as they fell to a Jonny Wilkinson-inspired Toulon 24-16 at the Stade Velodrome. Toulon would eventually go on to win the title.
