Ireland produced a superb display to stun England 19-9 in their Six Nations clash at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin on Sunday.

After a tense first half which saw both sides squander decent chances, Stuart Lancaster eventually saw his side’s hopes of a Grand Slam well and truly dashed after the restart with centre Robbie Henshaw crossing in the 52nd minute.

This win sees Jonathan Sexton’s team-mates hold a two point lead over England ahead of their next game against Wales on March 14.
