'Where’s the TMO gone? Head in the biscuit tin or gone to the toilet?! How’s he missed this clear yellow card for Porter for the tip tackle?!'https://twitter.com/AndyGoode10/status/1652323677579485185
Leinster senior coach Leo Cullen was asked about the specifics surrounding the two Toulouse yellow cards and that Andrew Porter incident but opted to focus on his team showing focus and skill to twice exploit the man advantage when the French side had players in the sin-bin."Of course - we could have played 15 vs. 14 but error was not mentioned - Wayne Barnes is a top level referee but as the press was on for a try, this foul was not picked up. That was disappointing. It could have got us back to [even] less than that 13-point difference at half-time.
"A lot of facts did not turn in our favour," Mola added, "and we paid a dear price."
"They are big moments in the game," said Cullen. "Cards are part and parcel of the game… trying to exploit those advantages that you have."
Cullen was asked if Johnny Sexton, who underwent surgery in mid March, could possibly be back for the final, on May 20. "No," Cullen swiftly replied. "I'd be shocked."Explore more on these topics:
