Ireland have beaten England 32-18 in their final Guinness Six Nations game this evening.

Early losses in the tournament meant that neither side had any silverware to play for but, for the first time in five games, Ireland produced the 80-minute performance that coach Andy Farrell had hoped for.

The only negative was a red card for Connacht’s Bundee Aki, with the centre sent off for a high tackle on Billy Vunipola in the 64th minute.
