Ronan O’Gara’s last-minute penalty snatched victory for Magners League Munster and left the Ospreys’ play-off hopes hanging by a thread.

Munster led 3-10 at half-time after David Wallace’s converted try, but the Ospreys went ahead when Alun Wyn Jones’ try was soon followed by a penalty try.

Munster responded with two further O’Gara penalties before James Hook’s kick looked to have sealed a home win.

But the Ospreys were caught offside and O’Gara’s fifth penalty spilt the posts.
