MATCH SUMMARY Wales U21 (10) 32 Tries: M Jones, Czekaj (2), Bishop Cons: M Jones (3) Pens: M Jones (2) Ireland U21 (5) 5 Try: Hennessey Match photos

Ospreys fly-half Matthew Jones claimed 17 points as Wales sealed their third full house of wins in six years.

The fly-half got Wales' first try after 16 minutes, but an Oisin Hennessey try put Ireland back in contention.

Wales stepped up the tempo after the break and showed their class with further tries from centre Andrew Bishop and a brace from winger Chris Czekaj.

Said Wales coach Chris Davey: "It's a terrific achievement by the boys.

"We knew we had a talented group of players this year, but they've more than met our expectations.

"It was a difficult evening for them tonight; they wanted to play and really tried to get some expansive rugby going but not everything came together.

"They scored some nice tries along the way and I'm sure we are going to see a lot more from these guys when we get to the World Cup."
