Andy Farrell pinpoints what went wrong for Ireland in Paris

The Ireland head coach felt his players went 'into their shells' during the 35-27 Six Nations loss to France

Ireland head coach Andy Farrell: 'At half-time the chat was about belief, it was a little bit off'

Ireland head coach Andy Farrell sensed a lack of belief in his team as they went down to a troubling defeat in Paris.

The visitors began the game knowing that a six-point win, including just one try, would give them the title ahead of England after the latter's win in Rome against Italy but too many basic errors saw them come up well short of their target.
