Officiating error disallowed try, tense finish for Ireland
An officiating error during Ireland's match against Italy led to a disallowed try for Hugo Keenan. The decision came after a pass from James Lowe, who appeared to stay in play despite a close call with the touchline. Referee Luke Pearce and his assistants did not review the play, despite the potential impact on the game's outcome. Replays later showed that Lowe's foot did not touch the line before he passed to Keenan. The disallowed try left Ireland leading 22-17, preventing them from extending their lead. The final minutes of the match became tense as Italy gained momentum.
