Late Penalty Secures Ulster’s Win, Richie Murphy Eyes Improvement for Benetton Clash

Ulster interim head coach Richie Murphy admitted that his team was fortunate to secure a 19-17 victory over Cardiff in the URC contest with John Cooney late penalty proving decisive. Murphy acknowledged Cardiff disappointment after a potential match-winning try was disallowed due to a knock-on.

Despite the win, Murphy highlighted areas for improvement, particularly in breakdown accuracy. With upcoming fixtures against Benetton, Murphy aims to address these issues during a longer preparation period. Ulster faced challenges with injuries to key players like Iain Henderson and Steven Kitshoff as well as concerns over James Hume condition.
