Hello and Welcome to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of this U20 World Championship match that sees two sides that have yet to win a single match so far in this tournament. Ireland's last match was a disappointing one as they went down 3-69 against the New Zealand U20s. Samoa's last match saw them go down 54-20 against a fired up Welsh side. Good luck to both sides
