Italy secured a first ever Six Nations win over Ireland at under-20s level with a 15-12 victory in Treviso. The hosts led 15-0 in the opening quarter after tries from the impressive Alessandro Drago and Alessio Caiolo-Serra despite playing with 14 men at the time of both scores.

The fifth and final game of Ireland’s 2025 Six Nations Championship campaign will be their third away match of the tournament and takes place in Rome.

Ireland know a win is a must if they are to preserve they faint Six Nations title hopes as they take on Italy on Super Saturday. The grand slam dreams were dashed by a drubbing at the hands of France in the penultimate round to leave Les Bleus in control of their own destiny as they prepare to take on Scotland in the championship denouement.
