Thanks to be bod
BOD created both tries. #bodisgod
Great try and you cannot say Ireland do not deserve it. Wonderful play from O'Driscoll as he takes two players out of the game with a dummy and gives it to Trimble on the left wing and he steps inside Esposito and gets his second try of the campaign.
Yet again BOD too good
Try for Ireland.
What an exciting end to this half as Dave Kearney knocks forward as Ireland look set to score and the Italians have the advantage but they also knock forward and Ireland get the ball and go on the attack again.
A quick tap and go from Ireland and some strong running from Rob Kearney in particular as they make it to the Italian 22 from their own 22 in 30 seconds. Great play.
Great play from Henry as he wins Ireland a penalty after the Italians failed to release.
Commentators say Ireland are miles ahead in fitness and Italy will slip in the second half.
A rushed kick from Rob Kearney doesn't make much ground and the Italians will have the lineout on the Irish 22. The Italians are putting it up to Ireland as they hope to cause an upset.
