Irish WAGs enjoy Six Nations win over Wales and celebrate in Cardiff
@Source: irishmirror.ie
The wives and girlfriends of the Irish Rugby team enjoyed the big win on Saturday, as they stayed behind to celebrate in Cardiff following the victory.
Ireland found themselves 18-10 shortly after halftime time, as an upset for the ages was on the cards.
The visitors were 23-point favourites going into the Six Nations clash despite the Principality Stadium being a place of mixed fortunes over the years.
And with some quarters of the Irish media saying that Ireland could win the game with 12 players, Wales were certainly not short of motivation under interim boss Matt Sherratt.
Thankfully for Ireland, some timely place-kicking from Sam Prendergast and the impact of substitutes such as Bundee Aki turned the tide as they scored 17 unanswered points to remain top of the Six Nations table.
Several partners made the journey over from Ireland for the match, and they celebrated with the team afterward.
Jessica O'Mahony, wife of Ireland star Peter O'Mahony, shared snaps, captioning the post: "A few hours in Cardiff"
Jessica was joined by Joanna Murray, wife of Conor Murray, and Laura Smith Healy, wife of Ireland record appearance holder Cian Healy, at the game.
For the trio, it could be their last trip to Wales, watching their husbands playing with retirement looming. Cian Healy has already stated this is likely his last season after he broke the Leinster and Ireland appearance record this season,n while O'Mahony also confirmed this would likely be his last year for Munster.
Murray, who turns 36 in April, has publicly acknowledged that the end of his career is nearing but has not stated any immediate retirement plans.
Next up for Ireland is a visit from France. A win would all but secure them a Six Nations victory and probably a Grand Slam as they travel to Rome to face Italy in the final game week.
A loss would blow things wide open, with France and England breathing down their necks on 11 and 10 points, respectively.
