Ireland beat 14-man England to win Grand Slam

Sport 09:58 19.03.2023
Ireland won their fourth Grand Slam as they wore down 14-man England in a tense Six Nations finale in Dublin.
 
Ednews reports citing foreign media that two early Owen Farrell penalties put England ahead before Ireland hit back with a well-worked Dan Sheehan try.
 
England's hopes of an upset were dashed when Freddie Steward was sent off just before half-time.
 
Robbie Henshaw and Rob Herring tries either side of Sheehan's second of the game ensured Ireland's first Grand Slam in five years, and first won in Dublin.
 
England, much improved from their humiliating defeat by France at Twickenham last week, scored a deserved second-half try through Jamie George, but were unable to pull off a major upset and ruin Ireland's big day.
 
Despite being tested by a resilient English side, Ireland - as they have so often done under Andy Farrell - found a way to win as they gave talismanic captain Johnny Sexton the perfect send-off in his final Six Nations match, even though his day ended early because of injury.
 
The full-time whistle was greeted with Irish celebrations at a jubilant Aviva Stadium as the home side delivered on their immense promise, having entered the competition as the world's number one side.
