Ireland are currently leading England 12 – 3 at the Aviva Stadium in their pre Rugby World Cup warm-up Test Match.
Whilst it has been far from vintage from both sides, Ireland have shown glimpses of what has propelled to the top of the World Rugby rankings.
England on the flipside have continued their rather disjointed approach looking more comfortable at kicking and chasing than keep hold of possession.
Scoring the only two tries of the match so far, Ireland exposed the English defence first through Bundee Aki who was on the end of a deft pass from Peter O’Mahony who broke through the English line.
Next up it was Aki’s centre partner Garry Ringrose who went over following some world class skill from winger Mack Hansen.
Having received the ball following yet another powerful run from O’Mahony, Hansen put across a beautiful cross kick.
Still with plenty to do Ringrose stepped his way through the remaining English defenders to put Ireland two scores ahead.
