    My fingers cannot type this quickly enough - Munster have another!

    Their captain Diarmuid Barron is the man to touch it home. Crowley makes no mistake with his conversion this time.

    Before we get back under way here, the TMO are checking an incident involving Glasgow's Sean Kennedy.

    I can hear the sighs of relief from the Glasgow players from here.

    That was quick...

    Glasgow had given away a penalty but Munster played the advantage and certainly made the most of it. Tom Ahern was the man to take the ball over the line before Jack Crowley sent his conversion wide.

    Edwin Edogbo

    You'd have to say it was coming...

    It's Edwin Edogbo who finally forces the ball over the try line and the conversion from Jack Crowley sails between the posts to put Munster ahead less than 10 minutes in.

    Glasgow have a tough job ahead of them.

    Glasgow Warriors boss Franco Smith tells Viaplay Sports: "We have mixed our team up quite a bit to get everyone back in.

    "We try and play with the ball but I think again tonight the processes with and without the ball are going to be important.

    "There is a reason why Munster are the champions of this competition. The way they have done it in the past proves the character.

    "It is going to be a very tough game, we are going to have to be at our best."
