Ireland v England

[sparky]

Ireland score. Weird try. The ball squirted out of a ruck and no one from England reacted, but the Irish Hooker eventually picked it up.

But they are looking at it. It's with the TMO.

[sparky]

No try.

England still leading 7-0.

Itoje gets a try ruled out for something he’s perfected. Fair play.

[Victor Meldrew]

England attack looks dangerous around the breakdown

[game_film]

Beirne either got hit in the head or dived.

[Victor Meldrew]

Ben Kay gives great analysis

@Victor-Meldrew Yup. Good how the guys who do it Week in Week out get to step up. They have the knowledge.

Yellow Card to Marcus Smith. England down to 14.

Lowe to Gibson Park that try was made in Aotearoa.

Project players to the rescue for Ireland.

Until World Rugby gets tough on it, nations like Ireland will do it.

Nice play by England but Slade loses it. But there's a penalty straight under the posts.

[sparky]

Smith gets the kick.

Team Green 5 England 10.

Half time.

Not much in this. Two very evenly matched sides. It will probably go to the wire.

England are better so far. I don’t know much about the England bench but the Irish bench has a few over the hill veterans.

England D coach has earned his money. Big improvement.
