Ulster are still in search of their first win in the Rainbow Cup following a 21 – 17 defeat by Leinster on Friday evening at the RDS. It’s Ireland’s fourth successive defeat in all competitions as Dan McFarland continues to struggle to get the best out of his charges for a full 80 minutes.
The Ulster points came from tries from Robert Baloucoune and Craig Gilroy with Billy Burns adding a penalty and conversion and Ian Madigan adding the final conversion. It was a valiant effort but it was another game where Ulster failed to capitalise on long periods of possession and territory.
Leinster (7) 21
