This sums up a huge day for Ireland's greatest ever player.

After the game, he revealed that he hasn't thought much about his impending retirement. "I haven't let myself think about. It is emotional," O'Driscoll said. "It has been a huge part of my whole adult life and to leave here [the Aviva Stadium] is going to be hard. "But this was a good way to leave today and hopefully we have set ourselves up for next week. "I feel humbled by the reaction. It seems a bit of of a joke that you get get man of the match for 60 minutes, but I have loved my time playing in this jersey. "It had to come to an end at some stage and I am glad to go out at home with a big win. "It will only properly set in when I have had a bit of time."
