Wales winger Josh Adams was awarded the man of the match prior to Ange Capuozzo setting up Italy’s last-minute winning try.
After the game, Adams went over and insisted that the 22-year-old emotional Italian took the medal in a clip that has since gone viral on social media.
What a lovely gesture.

“Embarrassing” – Three of the biggest 2022 Six Nations flops
#1. Finn Russell (Scotland)
Russell can take heart if consistency really is the hallmark of the unimaginative. The Scotland fly-half is a man who, on a good day, can turn a game with a heavenly flash of inspiration. But there are other afternoons when entire matches seem to pass him by and that pretty much sums up his Six Nations.
Contentious opinion of the day,
Finn Russell is a bloody liability.— charlesTdale
