Heroic Welsh Defending Denies Ireland

Predicated upon a resolute defensive performance for the ages, Wales blew open the Six Nations Championship race with a 23-16 win over tournament favourites Ireland.

Miraculously, the Welsh rearguard managed to repel Ireland for thirty two phases, a sequence that showed the defensive commitment of the entire Welsh team.

Wales’ performance was personified by lock Luke Charteris who made 31 tackles during a gripping Six Nations encounter.
