    Converted Try - Georgia 5-34 Irelandpublished at 71 mins

    Nick Timoney(con Prendergast)

    It's awarded! And that should be that!

    It came from Prendergast's crossfield kick, and he adds the conversion.

    It took two Georgian players to bring him down.

    It was initially short but then he seems to slide forward onto the line.

    Was it technically a double movement? I don't think he kicked forward so this could be awarded.

    Georgia 5-27 Ireland

    Nick Timoney shows good strength to get over in the corner, but you'll not be surprised to hear Andrea Pirardi wants to check it with the TMO.

    He definitely got it down, but was there a double movement?

    Ireland win another penalty as Tom Stewart was caught slightly high in the tackle.

    Prendergast, who is getting a long run out this evening, sends it into the Georgian 22.

    Aside from the opening couple of minutes of each half, this has not been a classic.

    Ireland are still getting the job done, though.

    Georgia 5-27 Ireland

    Craig Casey's kick in behind causes chaos and Georgia are under huge pressure on their own line.

    Lobzhanidze just about manages to get it clear.

    Ireland look to put on more pressure, but give away another penalty.

    Gavin Coombes is off for Max Deegan. It's been a good shift from the Munsterman.

    Georgia 5-27 Ireland

    Tom Stewart's first throw of the evening is a good one and Ireland have got a good platform to clear the ball.

    Casey duly obliges, and Tommy O'Brien pokes the ball back to green jerseys in the air.

    Georgia look like they have won the ball from the Irish maul but a maroon jersey had come from an offside position, so Ireland have another penalty.

    Prendergast points to the posts.

    We've 20 minutes to go and Ireland win the penalty on halfway at a ruck, and Prendergast fires the ball into the 22.

    It's a debut for Michael Milne, who comes on at prop. Ulster hooker Tom Stewart is also on.

    Jack Boyle and Gus McCarthy make way.

    Georgia come forward again through Davit Niniashvili, who goes scampering away down the right wing but his offload finds the hands of Jimmy O'Brien, rather than a team-mate.

    Calvin Nash almost gets caught trying to keep Lobzhanidze's kick into the 22 but he does really well to recover and palm the ball off to Prendergast, who was back there to help him out.

    At what point does Paul O'Connell turn to his bench?

    Aside from the enforced change of Calvin Nash for Jacob Stockdale, there hasn't been any movement.

    The Georgians change their entire front row as they look to restore their dominance in the scrums.
