Day 3: Ireland – Wales summary (2024)

(France TV)
Much sharper at home, Ireland logically came away against the Welsh on Saturday to end its series of seven defeats in the Tournament.
A one-way encounter. The duel between the two poorly ranked teams in this Six Nations Tournament turned to Ireland’s advantage on Saturday April 13, victorious over a poor Welsh team (36-5) in the Cork’s Musgrave Park. After a first quarter of an hour of pushing, the locals broke the red barrier by scoring the first of their five tries of the day.
Overmotivated by the desire to end a series of seven consecutive defeats in the competition, the Irish then continued, winning the offensive bonus as soon as they returned from the locker room (42nd), before slowing down slightly in the second half. At the end of the match, the Welsh took the opportunity to save their honor (66th). With this result, Ireland temporarily moves up to third place in the ranking before France-Italy this Sunday, April 14. Wales are last, with one unit.
