Crusaders Rugby to face Munster and Bristol pre-season matches in Europe.

The Crusaders Rugby will play English team Bristol on February 9 after taking on Munster in Limerick or Cork on February 3.  Historic meeting between reigning champions of Super Rugby and URC is confirmed for home of Cork GAA on February 3 next year.

Munster vs Crusaders Rugby

Munster and the Crusaders Rugby will square off in the famous ‘Clash of Champions’ next February at Páirc Uí Chaoimh, the team has revealed.

The province had applied to the GAA for permission to play the New Zealand giants on February 3, 2024. This will be the first-ever match between the URC and the current Super Rugby winners.

The recently crowned BKT United Rugby Championship champions from Ireland revealed in late June that they would play the seven-time Super Rugby championship winners from New Zealand in a blockbuster match. On Friday, they disclosed that they had contacted the Gaelic Games officials to request usage of the Cork stadium.

Crusaders clash against Munster likely to be a sell out

In front of 41,400 fans, Munster welcomed South Africa A in a fantastic match at Páirc Uí Chaoimh last November, and this rematch there is set to be another highly anticipated event.

The Guinness Six Nations opening between Ireland and France in Marseille takes place less than a day before the match, which kicks off at 5 p.m. on Saturday, February 3rd, 2019. It will take place right before Wales vs Scotland, another Championship match.
