Ireland Women 10-3 Wales Women

Laura Prosser of Wales tackles Amy Davis of Ireland before the game was abandoned

Ireland Women and Wales Women will have to play again after their Six Nations match was abandoned at half-time.

Falling temperatures on Friday night saw the pitch at Ashbourne start to freeze and Scottish referee Kevin White called a halt on safety grounds.

Ireland had scored the only try through wing Alison Miller, with centre Niamh Briggs adding the conversion.

Wales' Laura Prosser and Briggs swapped penalties to leave Ireland 10-3 at the break before the decison to stop.
