Gatland praises character of never-say-die charges

WARREN Gatland last nightheaped praise on his side fortheir never-say-die spirit which saw them secure a last gasp victory at the Aviva Stadium.

Though his injury-hit side forged the win on the back of a controversial last minute penalty after Stephen Ferris was harshly pinged for his tackle on Ian Evans, Gatland made no apologies for the plunder.

He said: “Yes, we were reasonably lucky, but we’ve been unlucky in the past when we’ve lost games in the last few minutes.”
