Marcus Smith kicked a last-gasp drop-goal as England stunned Ireland and ended their chance to win back-to-back Grand Slams in a Six Nations thriller at Twickenham.
Ollie Lawrence opened the scoring for England in a blistering start but Ireland, chasing history in their pursuit of a first double Grand Slam in the Six Nations, gained a foothold in the game through Jack Crowley's assured boot. George put out a call to arms, reminding the fans how the players would valiantly "defend our home" against Andy Farrell's side.
Lowe's first try did not dampen their attacking intent and more quick ball resulted in Furbank running clear to score his second Test try in as many games before Earl powered over for England's third. The visitors showed signs of negating England's blitz defence in the first half before pouring through at the start of the second for Lowe's first try with Henry Slade slightly out of position.
