England v Ireland LIVE: Result and reaction from Six Nations as Marcus Smith denies Irish grand slam with last-gasp drop goal

England aggressive in defence again and cause a Beirne knock-on but Martin and Ford (and frankly most of the defensive line) called for offside.

Some final points for Ireland before the break coming up

Lowe and his cannon of a left boot launches a kick from his own 22 all the way to England’s 22 and Furbank makes a mess of it on the touchline.

As he catches the ball he tries to flick it back up to himself to avoid going into touch but his foot is on the line and it’s Ireland’s lineout in a great position. Furbank has to let the ball go out there/

Furbank hits the line at speed just outside the 22 but knocks on in contact. The sort of error England were making plenty of against Scotland a fortnight ago but had largely cut out so far today.

England dominating the territory but other than Lawrence’s early score, they’ve been unable to take advantage.

The penalty is just inside England’s half but it is bang centre. Still a tough ask for Jack Crowley.

It’s an ugly-looking kick, low trajectory but creeps over the bar. They all count and Ireland lead!

Furbank tries to run a kick back from his own half and evades a couple of tacklers before being wrapped up.

Ireland then aggressive with their defensive line and Aki forces the turnover as he gets over the ball after brining down Chessum.

Looks like Crowley will go for the posts from just inside England’s half.

Spiral bomb launched by England but Frawley claims well. Ford then tries an up-and-under but it’s too deep, allowing Frawley to claim a relatively unchallenged mark in the 22.

England’s gameplan is working well so far - they’ve starved Ireland of abasically any ball in enemy territory but they need o be winning the kicking battle to maintain that.

On the 10-metre line but fairly central and George Ford lines it up. The distance proves to be an obstacle though as he goes for extra power but drags the kick wide of the right upright. Missed opportunity.

England competing at the breakdown well so far. Ireland not looking like 12-point favourites at the minute.

Another breakdown penalty won in Irish territory and Ford will go for the posts from long-ish range.

Ireland go down the blindside from the scrum, Gibson-Park forced to kick and England have a lineout in their own 22.

Martin leaps to claim it and O’Mahony pinged for playing the man in the air, so England gain territory into the Ireland half with the penalty

Simon Easterby’s Ireland defence forcing the turnover! Henshaw and Van der Flier manage to hold up the ball carrier in the tackle, it’s deemed unplayable and an Irish scrum. Great fundamentals.
