Ireland thump Italy in Chicago

Jordan Larmour scores his second try for Ireland Ireland thump Italy in Chicago
Standard published on November 3, 2018

Jordan Larmour scored a hat-trick as Ireland thrashed Italy 54-7 in Chicago on Saturday. 

Both coaches fielded experimental sides and after a tight first half, it was Ireland who put on a show as they scored six tries in a second-half romp.

World Rugby Breakthrough Player of the Year nominee Larmour enjoyed a fine outing in his first Test start, scoring three times in the second half.

The first half was a scrappy affair, with Tadhg Beirne grabbing his first of two tries to help Ireland go 14-0 up, before Italy’s Michele Campagnaro scored an intercept just before half-time.

However, Beirne went over for his second just after the interval to extend Ireland’s lead and the Six Nations champions never looked back as Sean Cronin scored from the back of a maul and Gary Ringrose finished off a fine break from centre Bundee Aki.

Ireland – Tries:  Jack McGrath, Jordan Larmour (3), Tadhg Beirne (2), Sean Cronin, Gary Ringrose. Conversions: Joey Carbury (5), Ross Byrne (2).
Italy – Tries: Michele Campagnaro. Conversion: Carlo Canna.
