Munster players get engaged on pitch after victory over Leinster

Two Munster players celebrated their 26-17 win over Leinster in the Vodafone Ireland Women's Interprovincial Championship by getting engaged on the pitch.

Clodagh O’Halloran proposed to Chloe Pearse at Musgrave Park in front of their teammates - and the latter said, yes!

The emotional scenes came after Munster made it two from two as they look to defend the Interprovincial Championship.

O'Halloran had a great day on the pitch which included a 43rd minute try for the province who can seal the title with a victory over Connacht next weekend.

Replacement Stephanie Carroll’s last-minute try, set up by captain Nicole Cronin, moved Niamh Briggs’ side five points clear at the top of the table.

Pearse was a second half substitute for Kate Sheehan on the day she got engaged to her teammate much to the delight of everyone at Musgrave Park.
