WATCH: Calvin Nash bags brace of tries as Munster 'A' draw with Connacht Eagles

MUNSTER 'A' played out an exciting 24-24 draw with the Connacht Eagles in their interprovincial fixture played at the Sportsground in Galway on Saturday.

A late Shane Jennings try for the home side denied Munster 'A' of coming away with victory.
The Eagles opened the scoring when Dylan Tierney-Martin drove over from close range, with former Munster out-half Conor Fitzgerald adding the conversion for the home side.

Connacht increased their advantage when Diarmuid Kilgallen got over in the corner to push the hosts’ lead out to 12-0. A resilient Munster side hit back, however, with out-half Jake Flannery kicking a close-range penalty to open the visitors account.

Out-half Flannery created Munster As opening try for Calvin Nash who darted over following a well-placed crossfield kick. Flannery also added the conversion.

Liam Coombes quickly added another Munster A try with Flannery again converting for 17-12 ahead.

Munster moved further clear with Nash crossing for his second try of the game, converted by Flannery to put 12 points between the sides.

FULL-TIME: Connacht A 24-24 Munster A
