Munster held up under pressure from Saracens and they away side will get the put in into the scrum inside Munster's half.

Saracens the better side so far in this half showing a lot more attacking intent.

Brilliant line break from Ashton! First attack of the half from either side as Alex Goode throws an inside pass to Ashton who sprints through the Munster defence, he chips through to try find David Strettle on the wing but the kick has too much pace on it.

Lovely kick over the top from Farrell as he puts the ball into the corner and gives the away side a good piece of field position.

Both sides testing each other with the kicking game.

Ian Keatley gets the second half underway.

Total line breaks in the game so far: Zero (for either side). Surprising.

Tight cagey affair at Thomond Park as the sides go in level at 3-3. No real side have had any clear cut chances so far. Munster have probably edge being the better side but not much in it at all. Hopefully this game perks up in the second half. Join us in 10 for coverage of the second half.

Poor enough kick from Keatley which was in front of the posts. That kick brings an end to the half.

Penalty for Munster as Saracens are penalised at the scrum. Ian Keatley will go for posts 40 metres out.
