Bevan try snatches last-gasp victory for Wales over Ireland
By Online Editors
Keira Bevan’s last-gasp try gave Wales a 15-13 victory at the UCD Bowl and denied Ireland a maiden November Test victory.
Adam Griggs’ side were on the cusp of a winning start to their international season when Ellen Murphy kicked a penalty with six minutes remaining to put here side 13-10 up.
Ireland had created some daylight through tries from Linda Djougang and Enya Breen, before Wales responded with 10 unanswered points.
The hosts still looked like they would hold on for just their second success of 2019, until replacement scrum-half Bevan went over to seal a narrow win for Wales.
In a country where rugby is king, high schools are breeding grounds for future rugby talent that the sporting world acknowledges to be the most plentiful on the planet.

Earlier in the season they were just wilting after the break. And what's pleasing is the number of young guys contributing, particularly in the forwards. It's a good foundation to build on. Yes third is a fair enough appraisal on current form. Though I disagree this French team can't beat South Africa, if they turn up mentally, on their day they can beat anyone. It's consistency that will always plague the French.
