Ireland condemned Wales to a record-extending 15th straight rugby loss after overcoming a 20-minute red card to rally for a 27-18 win and stay on course for an unprecedented third straight Six Nations title on Saturday.

Wales interim Matt Sherratt struck an upbeat tone and told his side to block out external noise following their 27-18 loss to Ireland on Saturday. The hosts were 23-point underdogs in Cardiff but looked to pull off an upset for the ages as they took an 18-10 lead at the start of the second half.

It's top vs. bottom at the Millennium Stadium as the Boys In Green look to make it a three-peat. Round 3 of the Men's Six Nations Rugby kicks off with a seemingly insurmountable task for struggling Wales as it looks to end Ireland's unbeaten start to this year's tournament.
