02/21 10:36 CST Ireland stuns England at Twickenham in a 42-21 rout and revives Six Nations hopes Ireland stuns England at Twickenham in a 42-21 rout and revives Six Nations hopes LONDON (AP) --- The rumors of Ireland's demise have been exaggerated. Ireland revived its Six Nations title hopes and killed off England's after a shocking 42-21 blowout win at Twickenham on Saturday. The script was expected to go the other way. England had not lost at home since autumn 2024, and a fiery retort after losing to Scotland at Murrayfield last weekend was expected to celebrate captain Maro Itoje's 100th England cap. But Ireland looked and played like the No. 1-ranked team from 2023; energetic, confident, efficient and fearless. Having slipped to No. 5, the Irish beat a team ranked higher than themselves for the first time since July 2024. And it was historic: Ireland's highest score and biggest margin against England at Twickenham with a bonus point from scoring five tries to three. Ireland shot to 22-0, led 22-7 at halftime, scored straight after the break and piled on. Jack Crowley booted seven from 10 for a personal 17 points in his second Six Nations start in two tournaments. The clash of British and Irish Lions --- 13 on Ireland's side and nine on England's --- was a reminder of why Ireland dominated the successful squad in Australia last year. ___ AP rugby: https://apnews.com/hub/rugby
