What time and TV channel is Munster v Stormers on today in the URC final?

Munster take on DHL Stormers today in the final of the United Rugby Championship.

Graham Rowntree's men head to South Africa in a bid to pick up their first piece of silverware since 2011 when they travel to the home of the reigning champions. Jack Crowley was the hero last time out with his Ronan O'Gara-esque drop-goal kickstarting what wound up being a miserable week for arch-rivals Leinster.

Stormers knocked out an Irish side in the semi-finals themselves when they ousted Connacht from the competition. The South African giants are no strangers to this occasion having won the inaugural URC a year ago.

Here's what you need to know about the game:

Where is the game being played?

DHL Stadium in Cape Town, South Africa.

What time is kick-off?

The game is due to begin at 5.30pm.

What TV channel is it on?

Both TG4 and Premier Sports 1 will be showing the game live.

Quotes corner

"It's come a long way," said Peter O'Mahony, "It's a difficult thing to do, to beat Leinster with the quality they have in the Aviva Stadium. Not many teams have.

"To go behind with not very long left, the way you navigate your way back up the pitch and get the score, it gives a huge amount of confidence to everyone.

"At the same time, as Graham (Rowntree) said, that can't be our final. It can't be.

"We have to play the occasion like we did against Leinster and Glasgow and before that. We have to play our game.

"We can't be happy with that performance. We've got to grow our game and we think we've done that in training. Hopefully it'll be on show."
