Italy 17 – 22 Ireland

Hugo Keenan and Dan Sheehan (hat-trick) scores will be attempted when Ireland secures a Bonus Point Six Nations Super Saturday victory over Italy at the Rome Studio Olimpico. Monty Ioan and Stephen Varney won Italy.

Dan Sheehan scored a hat-trick, but Ireland produced a performance littered with disappointing errors in the final round of the Six Nations, just past Italy 22-17 in Rome.

Fullback Hugo Keenan has won other Ireland attempts, but despite Italy being Michele Ramaro Singh bin bin bin and Ross Vintens showing a 20-minute red card, it was all the four of them could manage.

Ireland reached 22-10 ahead in the 58th minute, but Italy gave a nervous finish when Stephen Varney (Monty Ioan tried out the first half and answered with the next score.

Ireland was unable to score again despite further opportunities. Italy handed one last chance to claim an unlikely victory, but they couldn’t take it.

The poor start of the contest created Italy’s first moment of quality: the outstanding centre Tomasono Menon Cello off-roaded to Paolo Garbisi past the attempts of poor Mac Hansen and Garrying Rose Tackle.

Tommaso Allan transformed brilliantly 7-0 from near the touchline, and Jack Conan in the backrow knocked half of Italy as the ball continued to pile up and Irish errors continued to appear.

Another Menoncero breaking away from his own half was almost once again seen in Italy before the attack collapsed at Ireland 22. Visitors have finally put together their attack stages.

However, when I thought they had tried to open via Tighthead Finlay Bealham, it was correctly ruled out due to double moves after a TMO review.

Ireland stuck to it and eventually broke through the gorgeous Jack Crowley no-looking pass via Keenan, the latter being converted into a level problem.

Italian scrum half Martin Pagelero quickly took a big break as Jamison Gibson Park overleaded the play and was beaten inside, but Ireland recovered to clear.

Playing seven minutes in the half, Italy went back forward through Alan’s booming boots after a blatant call failure on offside.

When Tadhg Beirne was punished for blocking, nothing nice Crowley’s rap-around play was produced, but Conan’s breakdown penalty marked a last chance.

Among them, the Italian alternative backrow ulamaro – skipper dropped for this, but due to an injury – slap the ball from Gibson Park’s hand while he was away from his foot on the rack. The definite sinbin crime, the Lamaro, was officially seen as yellow, and Ireland was soon over with a second attempt through Sheehan at the Rolling Mall.

For 14, Ireland didn’t finish Hansen’s break when Gibson Park sent a poor pass to the touch and moved between leftists Crawley and Sheehan, so James Ryan couldn’t finish the try in the corner after a strong counterattack.

That last chance was a penalty advantage, with Ireland kicking to the corner and eventually adding a third try.

Crawley missed his second conversion and left the Irish lead with 7 points, but Italy No. 8 Wintense was upgraded to yellow to a 20-minute red card after a reboot of Keenan’s front head tackle.

Keenan appeared to have taken Ireland fourth after a gorgeous crawley dummy and pass, but the score was pulled back due to a previous Kaelandris knock-on.

When Gibson Park spotted Hansen on a crossfield kick, it was little important when Sheehan was on hand to score.

Sheehan’s third and Ireland’s fourth came when Mac Hansen showed great skills to hit the ball on play

However, Italy responded back to within the score, but when Ange Capozzo showed off his pace before kicking first, Hansen spilled the ball out of the bounce and Bernie got over it. Alan produced a great kick to narrow the gap to just five points.

Conan knocked another Irish chance when the host was restored to 15. Keenan was then refused to try by the touch judge when Lowe was dominated by the touch just before.

Ireland then packed it in with Italy sniffing the potential marquee victory. There was only one chance, but Capuozzo and Leonado Marine broke to the right, but Garbisi was too casual as Lowe could intercept him as Irish defense was set up.
