  1. Jamaica 0-14 Ireland

    Jamaica go for broke on the last tackle but Chevaughan Bailey throws the ball into touch. They still had plenty to do there.

  2. Jamaica 0-14 Ireland

    Sensational defending from Ben Jones-Bishop who runs into the corner to unceremoniously dump Ireland winger Innes Senior into touch.

  3. Jamaica 0-14 Ireland

    George King is leading by example for Ireland. He breaks another tackle in midfield and carries his team forward into try-scoring range.

    Ireland have had a couple of opportunities but crucially they've taken them.

  5. Jamaica 0-14 Ireland

    Jamaica have just steadied the ship here slightly as Kieran Rush makes a timely tackle on James Bentley near his own line.

  6. Jamaica 0-14 Ireland

    Kyle Amor
    Former Ireland and St Helens prop on BBC Two

    It's the right play, the kick was on. It's just the execution, he put too much weight on it.

  7. Jamaica 0-14 Ireland

    Does that go down as half a chance for Jamaica. Ben Jones-Bishop just sticks to much juice on his grubber to the corner and Mo Agoro can't get to that.

  8. Jamaica 0-14 Ireland

    Much better from Jamaica. Jacob Ogden gives them plenty of go forward out wide and Richie Myler then makes a hash of a towering kick under the lights to knock on.

    Jamaica can't handle the pressure. They have to find a way of challenging Ireland physically.

  10. Jamaica 0-14 Ireland

    Kevin Brown
    Former England international half-back on BBC Two

    Ireland are having fun. They're just going between the two scrum lines.

    There's nothing Jamaica can do, they're just not back and set. It's a blistering start from Ireland.

  11. Jamaica 0-14 Ireland

    Ed Chamberlain finds his range with the conversion.

    Brendan O’Hagan

    Ireland are camped out in the Jamaica half and Brendan O’Hagan scurries over from dummy half.

    Jamaica look out on their feet.

  13. Jamaica 0-8 Ireland

    Ireland are moving through the gears.

    Luke Keary hands off a couple of Jamaica defenders in midfield and dances through before setting Richie Myler away but Alex Young is over to make a try-saving tackle.

  14. Jamaica 0-8 Ireland

    Ed Chamberlain missed his first conversion attempt by a mile but goes closer this time around smashing the post. A miss is a miss, mind.

  15. Jamaica 0-8 Ireland

    Kevin Brown
    Former England international half-back on BBC Two

    This is just route one stuff, the sheer weight of possession.

    The temptation is to lift your arm to stretch for the line but in rugby league you can't have two movements. Instead George King stays patient.

    George King

    Route one. Ireland skipper George King uses sheer brute force and momentum to carry him over the line.

  17. Jamaica 0-4 Ireland

    Here come Ireland again.

    Kevin Brown
    Former England international half-back on BBC Two

    It looks simple but it's the intricacy of the late movement. Ireland look really sharp.

  19. try

    TRY - Jamaica 0-4 Ireland

    L Senior

    They didn't have to wait long. Louis Senior gallops in at the corner after a wonderful set-piece move from a scrum.

    Senior opens the scoring for Ireland against Jamaica

    I thought Ogden got his hand to that.
