Ireland kept themselves on course for a first Grand Slam since 2018 as they ended Scotland's Triple Crown dream with an impressive second-half performance in Sunday's Guinness Six Nations showdown at BT Murrayfield. A tightly-contested first half in which Huw Jones and Mack Hansen exchanged tries ended with the visitors leading 8-7.
But the world's top-ranked side - who lost four players to injury during the match - scored 14 points without reply after the break as James Lowe and substitute Jack Conan touched down either side of the hour mark, paving the way for an ultimately comfortable 22-7 victory in which Johnny Sexton became the joint-leading points scorer in the tournament's history.
The Irish will secure the Grand Slam if they defeat England in Dublin on Saturday, while the Scots - after opening with back-to-back wins - go into their final match at home to Italy with little to play for other than pride. Read back Scotland vs Ireland in the Six Nations live blog below!
