Ireland U-20 side stay on target for Grand Slam

Trinity winger Shane Monahan scored the only try at Dubarry Park last night as Ireland remained on course for an Under-20 Six Nations title and Grand Slam.

Eric Elwood's youngsters brilliantly recorded their third straight win of the championship and have only Scotland and Italy left to play.

In wet conditions, Monahan stooped to take a low pass and glide over just before the break.

UCD out-half Ian Keatley converted and added two second half penalties to send the 4,000-strong Athlone crowd into raptures. England, the defending champions, could only count on two penalties from full-back David Doherty.
