Some of us got to watch the match via the wonders of the
Internet. For those who were there (and you know who you are), the match between
Munster and the
All Blacks (New Zealand), where Munster led 16-10 at the half and 16-13 until late in the game, cheering for the tired, courageous, injured and wornout players in red must have felt like the kind of fun and fable we long to tell our children about.
Although the Munster team lasted as long as they could, they lost 16-18 in a match we
will tell our children about.
Thirty years after the
famous 1978 match,
Munster can still hold its head high:
To the brave and faithful, nothing is impossible.
Long live the 2008 Heineken Cup champions!
