Tough day for Wales Women’s Rugby as their Six Nations journey hit another snag with a 33-12 defeat against Ireland in Belfast. Sean Lynn’s team showed promise at the start, but the match quickly turned in Ireland’s favour after Aoife Wafer’s opener, despite a valiant effort from Georgia Evans, who got Wales on the scoreboard with a try.
The home team surged ahead, with Beibhinn Parsons and Brittany Hogan adding to the tally. Even after Ireland went down to 14 players, Wales couldn’t capitalise, compounded later when Jasmine Joyce received a yellow card.
Wafer secured Ireland’s bonus point with her second try, and although Joyce managed another try for Wales, it wasn’t enough to alter the outcome. Hogan’s second try for Ireland rounded off the match, leaving Wales winless in the tournament so far.
Wales now faces Italy, hoping to break their losing streak and avoid a consecutive winless campaign. Keep cheering for our team—there’s still one more chance to turn things around! 🏉🇮🇪
