BAD LUCK OF THE IRISH | Wales snatch win
WALES coach Warren Gatland admitted his team were “reasonably lucky” after Leigh Halfpenny’s (pictured above, centre right) last-minute penalty earned them a 23-21 win over Ireland in their Six Nations opener. Jonathan Davies scored two tries and George North grabbed the other as the visitors edged a pulsating encounter in Dublin. Rory Best and Tommy Bowe crossed for Ireland.
