Contrasting fortunes for both sides after that opening period. Glasgow with a hugely efficient and effective performance and their three tries see them take a 17 point lead into the interval here at Thomond. For the home side, Rob Penney will have a few choice words for his players after a dismal showing so far. Decision making has been nothing short of appalling from the Munster players thus far, with far too many 50/50 offloads being risked and ball being kicked away on regular occasion. Big lift in intensity and accuracy needed if Munster are to build on the momentum of last weekend's Heineken Cup win. If not, Glasgow could well run away with this as things are going.

Nothing coming and ball is spread wide to Van der Heever, Play on Glasgow 22 now as Downey carries well
Maul comes on but Munster not making any real progress as yet
Four scrums in a row without a collase and Glasgow deemed to be offside from the scrum. Penalty Munster and Keatley goes to the corner with his side 17 points in arrears. Huge minute here for both sides
Standers gets in to hold up his man off the restart and Munster will have the scrum just on halfway. Hosts could really do with a score here with just two minutes left until HT
Another all too simple score for Glasgow. Strauss simply powers his way through the tackle and stretched out to finish. Very efficient stuff from the visitors but hugely disappointing stuff from Glasgow
Solid Glasgow scrum sets perfect platform to attack as Maitland heavily involved once more. Swinson gets to within a metre. Crucial period of defence for Munster here
Cusiter goes to the box kick off the back of the LO and Munster look to run it back from deep. Play on halfway but Glasgow turn it over. Maitland kicks ahead and Zebo is forced to carry it over his own line, gifting Glasgow the 5m attacking scrum.
Zebo's defence is shocking
