Ulster narrowly lost to Clermont in France on Saturday but qualified for the quarter finals as best placed runners up.

They'll play Munster at Thomond Park over the first weekend in April and they have already beaten the two time Heineken Cup winners this season, but it was at Ravenhill.

Speaking about the challenge of facing Munster, Johann Muller said: "They showed on the weekend what a great side they are.

I think the weekend in Limerick is going to be a brilliant one

Ulster Captain Johann Muller on the Heineken Cup quarter final against Munster.

"Getting 51 points away from home against last year's finalists (Northampton) is a great effort so it's going to be a massive game.

"We definitely are going to give it our best and with a little bit of luck and one of two calls going your way anything is possible.

"We truly believe that we are good enough to get to a semi-final and to get a final to win this tournament.

"This group of players has been together now for almost two years, we really trust each other and we enjoy each others company and we love playing together on a rugby field so you know if you can create that special bond off the field you carry it out onto the field.

"If you can put that together with some really good results and positive play in the field anything is possible," he said.

This past weekend was a massive one in both rugby and in football as both Leinster and Chelsea became European Champions.
