The Irish rugby world is celebrating historic back-to-back Six Nations victories after an emotional roller-coaster of a final day.
Our reporter Shaun Cronin was at the Ireland game and stayed back with thousands of other Irish fans to watch the England - France game play out on the big screen.
Fantastic gesture by the Scottish Rugby Union to let the Irish fans back into the stadium to watch the England game! @ScottishRugbyXV

With Ireland needing the visitors to keep within 26 points of England at Twickenham the crowd was behind France all the way.
Ireland fans now chant Allez Les Bleus at Murrayfield. #SCOvIRL
