England beat Ireland 21-10 at Twickenham in the final Six Nations match of the weekend.

The first half was a cagey affair and the sides went into the break with England ahead 6-3. However after the break it was Ireland who scored first through Conor Murray, with the scrum half diving over the line in trademark fashion from close range.

England then came roaring back into the game through tries from Anthony Watson and Mike Brown that were both scored within five minutes of each other.
