'It was the worst I'd ever felt in my life'- Billy Burns opens up on missed Cardiff kick
Ireland's Billy Burns is consoled after the Guinness Six Nations match at Principality Stadium, Cardiff.
Billy Burns has revealed the fallout of his missed kick in the closing stages of Ireland's Six Nations defeat to Wales was "the worst I have ever felt in my life."
With 14-man Ireland chasing their hosts (21-16), Burns had the chance to set his side up for an injury-time five-metre lineout and a possible try but his penalty to touch was too long and went dead over the in-goal area. The final whistle sounded seconds after.
