Game Over! Ireland Win 47-5 In Fukuoka

The scrum is reset before McGrath is able to kick the ball dead. 14-man Ireland rack up seven tries in defeating Samoa 47-5. Larmour is confirmed as the Mastercard player-of-the-match.


Ireland advance to the quarter-finals on 16 points. Their opposition in the last-eight will be confirmed tomorrow - it will be either New Zealand or South Africa, depending on the outcome of Japan v Scotland.

2º Half

Ireland With A Late Scrum In Their Own Half

A tip-on pass, under pressure from Stockdale, goes forward and a Samoan breakaway effort is foiled. Before that, Porter starred with a turnover, a strong carry and some soft hands when passing to a team-mate.

2º Half

Samoa Miss Out On A Try

A big maul from Samoa. O'Mahony and Porter digging in. Big Piula Faasalele thinks he has scored but the decision goes to TMO Kitt.


The Samoan replacement is denied as Kitt says he 'dropped the ball backwards and regathered it on the ground before grounding it on the line'. It is a double movement and Ireland have a clearing penalty.

2º Half

An opportunity for Samoa to attack from a penalty on halfway. Ireland are guilty of 'standing up in the scrum'. A fine kick to touch from the experienced Pisi.

Clinical Play And Conway Increases Ireland's Lead

Conway sprints down the right touchline to be the first man to Carbery's well-weighted kick past the try-line. Try number seven for Ireland, Larmour was heavily involved in the build-up.

Stander Gets On The Scoresheet

Ireland take the scrum option from the Le'aupepe penalty. Stander breaks off the base and is stopped short. A couple of phases later, the Munster back rower picks up from a ruck and wrestles his way over to the right of the posts. Ireland's sixth try of the night.

There is no clear groundings on the replays. Kleyn drove for the line after O'Mahony had won the lineout, but the replacement lock was adjudged to have been held up. Le'aupepe is penalised for a late tackle in the build-up.
