Zebo has been in blistering form for Munster and he is carrying on his streak in the green jersey.

He opened the scoring in Cardiff after a brilliant pass from Brian O’Driscoll, but it was his involvement in the second try that was nothing short of sensational.

Rory Best charged down a Dan Biggar kick and when the ball came to Zebo on the wing, the pass from Jamie Heaslip was a little behind the Cork man.

That did not stop the Cork speedster, who flicked the ball up, re-gathered and kept the move going that eventually led to Cian Healy touching down.

Breathtaking stuff from Zebo in what was a brilliant opening for Ireland in Cardiff.
