Quick Glance: Italy Triumphs Over Wales, Securing First Wooden Spoon in 21 Years
  • Italy defeated Wales in Cardiff, achieving their most successful Six Nations and condemning their hosts to their first Wooden Spoon in 21 years.

  • Under the guidance of Gonzalo Quesada, Italy bounced back from initial defeats by England and Ireland to secure an away draw against France and victories against Scotland and Wales.

  • Wales has faced 12 defeats in the last 13 tournament games, dropping to 10th in the world rankings as Italy climbs to eighth.

  • Warren Gatland, who returned in December 2022, has struggled with only one win in 10 Six Nations matches, compounded by the retirements of key players posing challenges for the team.
