ZEBRE HAVE BEATEN Munster for the first time in their history, the Italians shocking the province after a brilliant team performance at the Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi.
The teams traded six tries in an open first-half, Munster scoring the first through Gavin Coombes before two quick-fire Zebre tries put the Italians in the driving seat, with Munster then scoring three tries between the 30th and 40th minute to lead by 13 at half-time.
Yet a disastrous second half saw Munster collapse, conceding 24 unanswered points as Zebre stormed back to claim a deserved bonus-point win.
