Bleyendaal put the hosts 10-3 up after the break before pressure sucked in Racing numbers and Ronan O'Mahony's low drive in the corner got Munster's second try.
Munster pressed for a third but a poor Bleyendaal pass and a Zebo knock-on cost them 60 yards and possession. Racing took advantage when Henry Chavancy muscled over and Machenaud converted. 17-10 with 20 minutes to go. The game was still up for grabs.
Racing pressed again and Munster had to soak up some pressure but a superb turnover from John Ryan and Dave Kilcoyne flipped the switch. Munster pounded away for seven minutes before a Bleyendaal skip pass eventually found its way to Conway.
There was lots to do but Conway did it. He took his man down the outside and sucked in three defenders before passing to Ian Keatley for a simple, beautiful try.
That try, unconverted as it was, meant Munster overtook Saracens to get that coveted second seeding.
All that was left was for CJ Stander to get his now customary man of the match award.

Instead of a field or the gym, they were filmed on a Dublin street doing maul drills, while others causally tossed the ball around. It is unclear exactly where […]
