In the recent Six Nations decider, Ireland faced off against France, where the latter emerged victorious. This outcome underscored a harsh reality in sports: despite hard work and determination, teams sometimes don't receive the results they deserve. France showcased superior skill and teamwork, performing at a markedly higher level during a highly significant match in rugby history. This encounter at Lansdowne Road highlighted both the competitive spirit of rugby and the unpredictability that often comes with it, particularly for the Irish team.
In sport you don't always get what you deserve - but unfortunately from an Irish perspective we got our just deserts in what was effectively the Six Nations decider on Saturday.
The better team - make that squad - certainly won. The French were operating at a different level in one of the biggest occasions in the long and proud history of rugby at Lansdowne Road.
