Italy's reaction to their first Six Nations away win since 2007 reminded us why we love it so much

It wasn’t pretty but the players savoured every second of the victory.

ITALY DRAMATICALLY SNATCHED a win at Murrayfield earlier after they were awarded a penalty try on the game’s final play. The game wasn’t thrilling by any means for the neutral but the exciting finish and celebrations from the players made the experience worthwhile.

It was especially nice to see Sergio Parisse at the final whistle and the Italian captain was clearly emotional with the win.

All round great scenes that showcased the best of the Six Nations.

While Ireland consistently hunt for championships you can forget how much an away win still means to Italy.

This Sunday the Irish people will get their revenge on the All Black who broke our hearts

It was Sonny Bill v Richie this morning and the result was not pretty
