It's a maul from the visitors

Irish win their lineout inside the Sale 22

Harrison leads with his elbow into Phipps' neck. He escapes a red as it was not direct. The ball is taken back to the Irish ten metre line where Jackson clears for touch

Irish make a great run and get onto the Sharks' 22 before the ref blows his whistle and stops the clock. He wants to look at a dangerous play by Harrison. TMO decision to follow

A simple-looking turnover means that Sale regain possession but Irish turn it over soon afterwards

A box kick from Cliff means that Irish have possession on their ten metre line

A shallow kick from Irish is gathered by Sale halfway between their ten metre line and 22

Sale are awarded with a penalty on the Irish 22 and McGinty calls for his tee

The ball is returned with a kick after the restart and Sale attack very near to the Irish 22

A great piece of play from Cowan. The ball is given to the replacement eighthman who manages to get his hand out to give Donnell a "chicken-wing" pass. Donnell manages to stretch over the line for a try to the visitors!
