Ireland-Italy kicks off on Sunday February 11 at 4 p.m. on France 2.
The Irish, slayers of the XV of France in Marseille during the first day of the Six Nations Tournament (17-38), host the Transa in Dublin. Italy is coming off a defeat against the XV de la Rose conceded at home (24-27). But the Transalpines, authors of a good performance, will not present themselves as expiatory victims in the capital of Green Erin.
