O’HAGAN LEADS IRISH REVENGE MISSION
IAN GOLDEN Millennium Stadium, Featherstone, Saturday
IRELAND 36
WALES 12
IRELAND cruised to a win over Wales, with the exact same margin of score to the previous week’s Welsh victory in Neath.
If there was a ‘Celtic Cup’ style trophy for this two-match series, which perhaps there should have been in order to spice things up a bit, the final result would have been 36-36 on aggregate, and we could have had a golden-point finale.
As it was, the spoils were shared, although Ireland did score more tries over the two weeks, missing six kicks in this game, while Wales’ Matty Fozard hit the mark every time.
