And Premier Sports pundit - and former 3 Munster lost to the Sharks in the URC quarter-finals Credit: Shaun Roy/Sportsfile 3 Jack Crowley had a foul-mouth rant at Sharks coach John Plumtree 3 Jaden Hendrikse appears to wink at Jack Crowley while receiving treatment for cramp during the penalty shoot-out Ian Costello's men were knocked out following a Sharks were represented by Jaden and Jordan Hendrikse and Bradley Davids. Scannell was the only one of the six to miss as the Sharks ran out 6-4 winners to set up a United Rugby Championship semi-final against the Bulls for June 7. Tensions boiled over during the shoot-out however. Read More on URC It started when Jaden Hendrikse had words for Jack Crowley after converting his first kick, leading to a warning from referee Mike Adamson. He was at it game after converting his side's third, as he went to ground with a supposed cramp. As Hendrikse was receiving treatment, he was laid nearby to where Crowley was to take the next kick, and even directed a wink at the Ireland international. Despite the potential distraction, Crowley nailed the kick before directing his ire at Sharks coach John Plumtree. Most read in Rugby Union While it could not be definitively deciphered what he said, he could been seen saying "f*** off" at the end of the exchange. The jostling did not stop there, with Scannell gesturing towards the Sharks sideline after nailing a later kick of his own. Peter O'Mahony's wife jokes 'glad I gave him three mini-mes' as kids help Munster hero with garden Speaking on Premier Sports, former Munster star Alan Quinlan criticised the behaviour of the Sharks sideline. He said: "It's shocking really, the way they're behaving, the people on the sideline there. "They're obviously screaming and shouting stuff at the Munster players. "It's obviously not very sportsmanlike. Unlike Rory Scannell there to respond as well." Saturday's defeat was the final game in the Munster careers of O'Mahony and Archer will be hanging up the boots for good at the end of the season, while Murray will be continuing his career abroad. And interim Munster head coach Ian Costello paid tribute to the departing trio. He said: "Those three are exceptional people and legends of Munster rugby . 'And they've left, or they will leave, a massive legacy behind. That's going to be very difficult for us to live up to and fill, but that's what you want. 'You want somebody to leave it in a better place. And they've left the jersey in an unbelievably good place. "Now it's for everyone else in the dressing room , moving on to next year, to live up to that. 'There's also our team manager, Niall O'Donovan, who's an even longer servant of Munster rugby. It was his last game as well. "The last few weeks have been pretty special in terms of making sure those boys got a good send-off, which is why tonight was particularly disappointing.'

Ghana face Trinidad and Tobago in the Unity Cup third place play-off this afternoon (Getty Images) The Unity Cup international football tournament concludes this afternoon and first up is the third-place play-off between Ghana and Trinidad and Tobago. A vastly inexperienced Black Stars squad were beaten 2-1 by rivals Nigeria on Wednesday night, though that was certainly a game of two halves. Second best in the opening 45 minutes at Brentford's Gtech Community Stadium, Otto Addo's side trailed by two at the break. Advertisement However, they rallied in the second half, halved the deficit with Brandon Thomas-Asante's first international goal and were inches away from sending the game into penalties when Abu Francis had an effort superbly saved by Stanley Nwabali in injury time. 24 hours earlier, Trinidad did fight back from two-goal deficit in a thriller against Jamaica. But Dwight Yorke's side conceded an injury time penalty from which Richard King successfully dispatched in a dramatic finale. If the games both nations were involved in earlier in the week is any indication, entertainment is guaranteed in west London this afternoon. Here is everything you need to know about how to watch the match... How to watch Ghana vs Trinidad and Tobago TV channel: In the UK, the game will not be broadcast on TV.
