Ireland flyhalf Johnny Sexton became Six Nations all-time record points scorer on Saturday after landing a penalty in the match with England at Lansdowne Road.
The 37-year-old moved on to 560 points to surpass Ronan O'Gara, his predecessor as flyhalf, in what is his 60th and final Six Nations test – O'Gara played 63.
O'Gara remains Ireland's overall record points scorer on 1 083, with Sexton on 1 050pts before the match against England kicked off.
Sexton, who will end his test career after the Rugby World Cup later this year, hopes for a dream farewell to the tournament in captaining the Irish to their fourth Grand Slam but first in Dublin.
