Padovani’s late try gives Italy historic Six Nations win against turgid Wales (unknown)

Edoardo Padovani crossed the line late on before Paolo Garbisi converted to give Italy a 22-21 victory, their first against Wales away from home.

That seemed to knock the zeal out of Italy. Wyn Jones was held up over the line shortly after, though that seemed inconsequential as Wales were all but assured of a scrappy win. It was a fitting conclusion to a game that ended with several Italy players in tears. They started brightly and were 6-0 up after a penalty each from Garbisi and Padovani. Their aggression on the ground seemed to take Wales by surprise and it took the better part of half an hour for Wales to find their groove. If they were to get back in it they would need an unlikely touch of class. The gap would have widened if Capuozzo had managed to dot down a loose ball after Garbisi’s cross-kick to Montanna Ioane. But Italy were good value for their first half-time lead in the tournament since 2019. That seemed to spook the home side with Biggar attacking the line with greater ambition. A turnover in their own 22m was swiftly moved up field with Rees-Zammit and Uilisi Halaholo leading the charge. This is Italy’s first win over Wales after 16 defeats and their first in Cardiff. They had not won a Six Nations game in seven years. Then Ange Capuozzo collected the ball deep inside his own half with a minute remaining. The men in red were turgid, uncreative and ill-disciplined. This was supposed to be a day to celebrate two of Wales’s greats. They were playing a team on a 36-game losing streak in the Six Nations. What could go wrong?

Came up with a key turnover to kill Italy’s early second half momentum. Didn’t kick much ball early on – an uncharacteristic lack of game management. Far below his god-like standards, but a decent performance from the 150-cap titan. Overthrew an early lineout but remained composed for the rest of the game. A good alternative to the in-form Tomos Williams, Davies often looks sharp against weak defences. He had to break his vow of silence in front of referees. Slammed Monty Ioane into touch with a try-saver and scored an almost crucial try. Watkin allowed Wales to breathe early on by finishing a fantastic try. Had to organise everything in the last 20 with Sheedy completely anonymous. When Wales are attacking, however, McNicholl is a huge asset to their attack structure. Wales made it hard work for the Italians, but a last-gasp Edoardo Padovani try gave Italy a well-deserved win. Wales player ratings: Finishing a campaign with Italy at home is a strange one.
