You knew it was going to happen.
Ireland are out of the World Cup again and for the next few months until over opening game in the Six Nations we can play the age-old game of woulda-shoulda-coulda about today’s 43-20 loss in Cardiff.
The second semi final is underway at Twickenham and incredibly Scotland led by 16-15 at the break.
Scotland have only won four times ever in their history at Twickenham, but it appears that history may very well be on their side if this stat from the good folk at Opta proves once again to be accurate
0 – #AUS have never won after trailing at half-time in a @rugbyworldcup game. Burden.
