In the fourth minute, Carbury’s try ended Irish’s first big highlight. With the conversion, Ireland took a 7-0 lead.

Recovering the ball, Italy could not break the Irish defense, let alone the permit. Ireland returned to the opposite camp on penalties. A ball was snatched, but the ball was returned to the Italians following an Irish foul. This time it was an Italian penalty.

In the 10th minute, a new Irish error gives the Italians a new penalty touch in the Irish camp. It is well captured by the Transalpine Deployment, but the Italians are punished on the ground.
