Despite Suarez sealing the three points with a stunning second-half strike from a tight angle, the crucial breakthrough that infuriated Bruce so much was the spot-kick awarded 11 minutes before the interval.
Tom Shanklin - perhaps fortunate to still be on the field after a clumsy challenge in the air on Imanol Harinordoquy - got beyond the gain-line and from there fly-half Jones picked out Byrne's superb angle for the full-back to race 35 untouched metres to the line.
