TWEETS: The reaction to a brilliant first half at the Aviva Stadium
Keep it going, lads.
Ireland lead Wales 13-10 after the first half of their Six Nations clash at the Aviva Stadium.
Joe Schmidt's side started the better with spells of pressure in the Welsh 22 which resulted in two Jonny Sexton penalties and a Conor Murray try left us leading 13-0.
Wales fought back in the last 15 minutes of the first period with a penalty by Rhys Priestland and a try by Toby Faletau. It's very much game on.
Here's the best reaction on Twitter.
Not such a good last eight minutes... 🙈

After all our dominance Ireland lead by just 3 points as Priestland kicks the conversion 13-10 #IREvWAL

Within a couple of minutes a one-sided scoreline just became an all but even contest through the quality of the Welsh #IREvWAL

First half is a perfect presentation of the weakness then the strength of Gatlandball. #IREvWAL #6Nations

We need to be better at the scrums also more aware at the line-outs. #IREvWAL #COYBIG
