Rugby evening headlines as England humiliated in front of own fans with record-breaking Ireland win

Here are the latest rugby evening headlines on Saturday, March 12.

Eddie Jones' men went down 32-15 to Ireland in a record-breaking defeat as their Six Nations title hopes ended at Twickenham.

On what proved to be an extremely uncomfortable afternoon, Ireland's late scores handed them their biggest Twickenham win to keep alive their title bid.

In total, Ireland went on to score four tries from James Lowe, Hugo Keenan, Jack Conan and Finlay Bealham, aided by the boot of Johnny Sexton.

England's only points came from the boot of fly-half Marcus Smith, and they fought back to draw level at 15-15 after 60 minutes but Ireland regained a clear lead to finish with a bonus point.

Farrell's men host Scotland on the final weekend of the championship and will be reliant on a favour from England, who travel to Grand Slam-chasing France.

Chris Harris scored two first-half tries as Scotland overcame a sticky start to record a convincing bonus-point 33-22 victory over Italy in their Guinness Six Nations match in Rome.

Gregor Townsend's side struggled early on but once they sparked into life they were too strong for their hosts, who were consigned to the wooden spoon once again.

Sam Johnson, Darcy Graham and captain Stuart Hogg got the other tries on a pleasant spring day at Stadio Olimpico as the Scots recovered from back-to-back defeats against Wales and France to claim the inaugural Cuttitta Cup, named in honour of ex-Italy captain and Scotland coach Massimo Cuttitta.
