O'Shea: Italy were just 'playing to the laws'

Italy head coach Conor O'Shea says his side were just "playing to the laws" against England at Twickenham.

The Azzurri employed an unusual tactic at the breakdown to disrupt the game.

O'Shea said: "We were just playing to the laws.

"You come here and you put in a performance you're proud of and everyone is trying to pick at it."

Italy led 10-5 at half-time and threatened to cause a huge upset before England scored five second-half tries.

Eddie Jones' side beat the Azzurri 36-15, extending their unbeaten run to 17 matches.
