Much-changed Ireland beat Japan in Nations Championship as debutants impress

A much-changed Ireland side overcame Japan 36-20 to make it two wins from two in the Nations Championship.

Andy Farrell's side followed up their thrilling comeback victory over Australia last week with a solid performance at McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle, Australia on Saturday morning – with debutant Sean Jansen scoring and picking up the player of the match award in an impressive performance as Ireland picked up the bonus point victory to remain top of the Northern Hemisphere group.
