After a rugged and error-strewn first half at Thomond Park, Munster's PRO12 semi-final with Ospreys exploded into life as the home side scored one of the tries of the season.
After a period of sustained pressure inside the Welsh region's 22, Jaco Taute was turned over on the five-metre line, and the men in red found themselves sprinting back into their own territory following a pressure-relieving clearance kick by Justin Tipuric.
23 seconds later, Simon Zebo crashed over the Ospreys' line for Munster's second try following a lightning-quick counter from just outside Munster's 22.
First, Keith Earls slid to ground to collect Tipuric's kick, but to his credit, immediately went looking for space rather than play it safe. Earls eventually found the superb Francis Saili, who popped the ball to Murray, who put Earls away down the left.
Earls turned the ball inwards to the onrushing Andrew Conway who, with a swivel, put Zebo over - just - from 25 yards out. It was, simply put, a mesmerising score, and it was made all the better by some scintillating commentary as Gaeilge on TG4.
