A last minute disputed penalty gave Wales victory over Ireland at the Aviva Stadium.
Ireland led from a Tommy Bowe unconverted try but Stephen Ferris was harshly penalized in the last minute and Wales scored from the resultant penalty kick by Halfpenny.
Irish hooker Rory Best had scored a converted try for Ireland to give them an undeserved half time lead in the Six Nations rugby clash with Wales at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.
Ireland were outplayed for most of the first half but the Best try gave them a somewhat fortunate lead.

I'd be very happy if you were beaten too.

I'm always happy to see Ireland beaten in rugby. Any country that is ashamed of its own anthem deserves nothing but failure. Which is pretty much the Irish way!
