A try won by wing Edoardo Padovani gave Italy its first Six Nations Tournament win since 2015, with an agonizing 22-21 victory over Wales this Saturday in Cardiff.
The Italians had been ahead on the scoreboard for much of the match, but the Welsh, champions of the Six Nations last year, took the lead twelve minutes before the end.
Padovani's final try decided the match, between the last two finishers of this edition, ending a 36 consecutive losing streak for the Italians in the Six Nations.
Italy had not won a match in the star competition of the Northern Hemisphere rugby powerhouses since it beat Scotland 22-19 in Murrayfield seven years ago.
After losing in the first four days, this triumph allows Italy to escape a new 'Wooden Spoon', the dishonorable consideration given to the team that loses all their matches in the same edition of the Six Nations.
