Robert Lewandowski Jersey Sale<\/a><\/p>\nThe hosts gave as good as they got, going into the break just 8-7 in arrears following Huw Jones\u2019 try, but the Irishmen\u2019s quality and adaptability showed after the break.<\/p>\n
Their set-piece, despite the setbacks in the opening 50 minutes, went well and they touched down three times via Mack Hansen, James Lowe and Jack Conan to secure the win.<\/p>\n

The Irish will secure the Grand Slam if they defeat England in Dublin on Saturday, while the Scots \u2013 after opening with back-to-back wins \u2013 go into their final match at home to Italy with little to play for other than pride.<\/p>\n
Prior to kick-off Stuart Hogg was accompanied onto the pitch by his children ahead of his 100th cap. The Scotland full-back was visibly emotional during the national anthems, and his son then returned to the field to present the match ball.<\/p>\n
Hogg had to quickly get his game face on, however, as Ireland set about making their presence felt in the early stages, threatening the try-line. The Scots were forced into a change after just six minutes when lock Richie Gray went off injured and was replaced by Scott Cummings.<\/p>\n
Ireland almost made the breakthrough in the 11th minute when Hansen was picked out wide on the right but Duhan van der Merwe did just enough to pull him into touch. The Irish had already earned a penalty advantage and Sexton duly kicked between the sticks from close range to get his side off the mark.<\/p>\n
Injury woes<\/h3>\n
This phase of play came at a cost, however, as Doris went off injured and was replaced by Conan.<\/p>\n
After doing well to ride out the early period of pressure by conceding just three points, Scotland forced their way into the game. They got themselves in front in the 17th minute when Jones bounded over after being set up by his fellow Glasgow centre Sione Tuipulotu following a sustained period of pressure in front of the Irish line.<\/p>\n
There was a further blow for the men in green as Sheehan went off immediately after the try to be replaced by Kelleher, and remarkably Henderson became the third Irish player forced off by injury when he went off to be replaced by Ryan Baird in the 24th minute.<\/p>\n
