Henshaw happy with Irish debut

Robbie Henshaw found the step up to Test level a real challenge, but Ireland’s newest international relished his first cap against the US Eagles and is now hoping his side can build on their narrow victory when they face Canada next weekend.

The 19-year-old became just the fourth teenager to play for Ireland in the professional age in Houston on Saturday, following Gordon D’Arcy, Luke Fitzgerald and Rhys Ruddock into an exclusive club.
