    Ireland 19-10 Wales

    Tadhg Furlong loses the ball in the tackle, and Gibson-Park bails him out by sniping in at the ruck to win it back from Ireland.

    It's then knocked on, and Wales will have the scrum.

    This is scrappy now, and that's being polite.

    Not to be bringing out the clinches, but you can't help but feel the next score is crucial.

    Nine between them with 25 minutes left.

    That sort of defence from Ireland is exactly what Andy Farrell is looking for. Wales are perhaps starting to tire a bit.

    Conan clearly lost control of the ball. Not sure why we bother with a tmo

    The shot from above for that try (which the ref wasn't shown, would've given an obstruction call IMO all the angles are needed for that sort of call!

    Wales win the throw but can't make any ground and Ireland smother it to win the scrum.

    That was big defence from Tom O'Toole and Ronan Kelleher.

    Ireland think that they have a scrum, but it's actually a deliberate knock on by Tadhg Beirne a few phases earlier in the play.

    Dan Edwards pops the ball into the corner.

    Dan Edwards has played well but I would like to see him play a bit closer to the line and give the Irish defence more to think about.

    The pass didn't connect between Botham and Adams. Such a shame it was on otherwise.

    So close to a response from Wales!

    Josh Adams made the line break but was caught in two minds and delays the pass to James Botham, who had over run by that points and the ball was into touch in the corner.

    If the pass had been made earlier the back row might have been in.

    The question now is, how do Wales recover?

    They did it in the first half, but it's a bigger task now and Ireland have shown yet again how they take anything you give them.

    Wales win a penalty just inside the Irish half as James Ryan tackles off the ball.

    The visitors will have the throw just outside the 22.

    That’s not grounded. Clear drop and bounce. Home side decision.

    Rob, Cambridge

    What can you do? A definite knock on by Conan. No Contact when the ball hits the ground. What is Dickson seeing?

    Andy, Wales

    That is never a try. Conan dropped the ball over the try line

    Wales number eight Aaron Wainwright, who was an injury concern before the game, and prop Rhys Carre have given everything.

    Olly Cracknell and Nicky Smith will come on and aim to maintain the physicality.

    That was a needless penalty for Wales to give up. You don't have to gift Ireland chances like that.

    Rhys Carre makes way for Nicky Smith five minutes into the second half.

    I'd be gassed if I'd scored that try, too.

    Again Wales need to stop these mistakes, as Scott said earlier, Ireland will counter and take the spoils.

    It's good!

    And Jack Crowley adds the conversion for good measure.

    The crowd cheer as they think Conan grounded the ball, but, I'll be honest, it's not the clearest try I've ever seen.

    A big call for Karl Dickson and his team.

    Oh no, here we go again. Did he get it down?
