Saracens ground out a 15-6 home win over Munster in round 4 of the Champions Cup to avenge their defeat to the same opposition a week ago. Saracens opened the scoring with an early penalty, with Munster leveling things up 25 minutes in as the teams headed into the break deadlocked at 3-3 after an arm wrestle of a first half. An early second half penalty saw Munster edge their noses in front 6-3. A huge scuffle between the sides broke out 10 minutes into the second half, with the intensity of the match picking up thereafter with a number of huge collisions. Saracens ran in the games first try with 15 minutes to play to sneak in front by just two points at 8-6. Momentum was with the hosts, who crossed for their second try shortly after to take control of the match with under ten minutes to play. Munster were unable to muster a response as the Saracens victory keeps Pool 4 wide open.
