WATCH: Munster Rugby coach Clayton McMillan says 'so many positives' to take from win over Argentina XV

MUNSTER Rugby head coach Clayton McMillan said there were 'so many positives' to take from the side's exciting 31-28 victory over an Argentina XV at Thomond Park on Saturday night.

An attendance of 15,054 turned up to watch as McMillan's side, featuring a mix of youth and experience, secured a famous win over an international touring side, racking up five tries in all.

Ronan Foxe, Fionn Gibbons and try-scoring Limerick second-row Evan O’Connell made their first senior starts for the province in Saturdy night's historic win.

Conor Ryan, Max Clein and Luke Murphy also made their first senior Munster appearances in the game.

Afterwards Munster head coach McMillan said he has been very impressed with the effort squad members had put in during his time in the role which began during the summer. 

“I've been really impressed with the effort that everybody in the squad has put in and a lot of the younger guys have done a huge amount to help set up the guys that play regularly to go out on a Saturday and perform,” McMillan said.

“You just can't deny them the opportunity to go out and play and it's taken five or six weeks to get there, but it was really pleasing, satisfying to give them that opportunity and enjoy themselves, express themselves and get a win.

“It's important for the club, it's important for our growth and creating depth, so there were so many positives I think that came out of tonight.”
