What an incredible climax we had to the 2019 Guinness Six Nations Championship as Warren Gatland’s Wales seized the Grand Slam in style.
Wales powered past Ireland 25-7 at Principality Stadium with a hugely-impressive performance, the third Grand Slam of Gatland’s reign, sealed in his 50th and final Guinness Six Nations match leading the country.
This is how the world reacted.
Wales themselves are getting the party started…
Champagne rugby. Amser i ddathlu

A certain maths whizz was providing plenty of support before the Grand Slam was sealed.
