England currently top the Six Nations table, but Ireland just need to beat France to secure the title. I say 'just'... It's all set up for Brian O'Discoll and a spectacular showdown in Paris.

England captain Chris Robshaw: "Plus 50 points is what we wanted to do. It's just a shame we conceded that try. I'm really proud of the boys and the way they've played all tournament. Now we just have to sit and wait. We always knew it would be tough. We were focused, ready and came here with the objective of getting 50. We left a few opportunities out there but that's one for another day. Unfortunately we conceded. If we hadn't we'd have been in a good position."

Sir Clive Woodward
Former England coach in Rome on BBC One

"This is an exceptional England team that is going places and this is a tournament they're trying to win. I was just surprised that they made a lot of substitutions when they had a lot of momentum going. If they'd kept kept the same team on the pitch I wonder whether they'd have got the job done. In the last 15 or 20 minutes, they made a lot of substitutions when the Italians were out on their feet."

Andy Robinson
Ex-England and Scotland coach in Rome on BBC One

"That was a try handed on a plate. What a way for Chris Robshaw to end the tournament. He's developed his leadership and has been a credit throughout."

"The thing we talked about before the game was what got England in the end - the danger of the intercepted pass when you are trying to force play. It really took the steam out of England right when you were thinking it was possible."

Kate Shaw:, external Well done England! A final try! What a tournament for this team, well done boys!

Ben Wright:, external Got the 50 point mark but not enough I shall now be a French fan for first time or my life.

That's it. Game over. England must now wait to see what Ireland can achieve in Paris.

Ambition from Italy as they attempt to break free from their own 22 but they lose possession. Great footwork by replacement George Ford and he finds his captain Chris Robshaw who dives over without an opposition player anywhere near. Owen Farrell converts to ensure he ends the match with a 100% record with the boot.

Another England line-out from a similar position. Courtney Lawes beats everyone to the ball, but it isn't an ideal platform from which England can attack. England are still 15 points adrift of Ireland on points difference.

Two minutes left and England opt for touch after Italy concede a penalty. Tom Youngs with a line-out in Italy's 22...

Owen Farrell could be in trouble. Touch judge Nigel Owens tells referee Pascal Gauzere that the England outside-half grappled Edoardo Gori around the neck at the maul. The yellow card remains in Gauzere's pocket and number 10 is penalised instead.

Henry Thomas, Dave Attwood and George Ford are all introduced for England in the late stages as Stuart Lancaster banks on fresh legs to add more points to the scoreboard.

Marc Jones:, external Sorry but this mass bringing on of subs spoils the intensity, continuity and structure of International matches.

Dan Wickham:, external Brilliant tactics from Lancaster, Fresh legs are damaging Italy!

"Nightmare for England having put themselves right in the position to put maximum pressure on Ireland. It makes that challenge look very difficult once again."

Manu Tuilagi can be relied on to make territory. Jack Nowell, too, carries the ball into opposition territory and replacement Dave Attwood breaks clear. Italy's retreating defence somehow bring him down in full flow.

Under 10 minutes remain of this match and momentum is with Italy. The hosts, though, mess up a line-out on the England 22 and the visitors attempt to run it out. The best form of defence is attack, it seems.

That Leonardo Sarto try could prove to be a blow to England's title hopes because Chris Robshaw and co are currently 15 points adrift of Ireland's points difference.

"This was always the danger for England. They've given it on a plate to Italy with that interception pass."

Owen Farrell has been making a celebratory hand gesture with every successful kick.

Lisa Pickard:, external Fab fab fab play. What's with the celebratory hand movement that Farrell does? Anyone know what it means?

Nick Watson:, external What's Farrell's celebration about with his fingers? Any ideas?

Farrell is performing what he calls the "Joining Jack" salute to raise awareness for a terminally-ill child suffering with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. He has stated he is trying to raise awareness for a charity which helps battle the condition.

An intercepted try! The visitors are punished for being a tad dozy in possession as Leonardo Sarto intercepts Joe Launchbury's pass and sprints down the left wing to score in the corner. Replacement Tommy Allan balloons the conversion.

A first touch for Tom Johnson as he barges forward from a line-out. England spin it left, with Owen Farrell putting Manu Tuilagi through to score underneath the posts. Owen Farrell adds two points with a simple conversion.
