Flanker Nick Timoney starred as Ireland recorded an 11th successive home Test win by beating a flamboyant but undisciplined Fiji in Dublin on Saturday.
The Irish were rocked and took their time to get their act together before Timoney went over in his third Test for his country. Joey Carbery converted to pull them level at 7-7.
The Irish extended their lead after Jamison Gibson-Park’s long pass picked out the unmarked Robert Baloucoune, who touched down.
