ROME -- England cheered for France, to no avail. France couldnt do itself or England a favour by beating Ireland in the Six Nations finale, as Ireland won 22-20 to take the title and leave England runner-up for a third straight year on Saturday. England did its bit with a 52-11 win over Italy at Stadio Olimpico hours earlier, putting added pressure on Ireland to win in bogey Paris. Ireland pipped England on points difference by 10. The English underlined their game-by-game improvement, rebounding from an opening loss to France with four straight statement wins over Scotland, Ireland, defending champion Wales, and Italy, which conceded 50 points at home to the English for the first time in a decade. Italy, which wound up with the wooden spoon and winless, also hadnt shipped 50 to a Six Nations team in five years. "Credit to Ireland - they are deserved winners and its a fitting finale and send-off for Brian ODriscoll, a legend of the game whom everyone in this squad respects massively," England coach Stuart Lancaster said in a statement. "We always knew this was going to be one of the tightest Six Nations and go down to the wire." England scored seven tries to one in perfect spring conditions in front of a sell-out crowd. Owen Farrell scored a try and converted all seven to finish with 22 points. He made all eight of his goalkicks. Man-of-the-match fullback Mike Brown crossed twice. "We scored some great tries and weve come here and scored 50, and not many teams have done that," Lancaster said. "There were some errors in the first half, but Im just proud of the boys. Its a great squad weve got developing and the bigger picture is important." Lancaster emptied his bench in the second half, and centre Manu Tuilagi, on for Luther Burrell, made his first England appearance in a year, and six month after a chest surgery, and scored the teams sixth try. Then England conceded an intercept try to winger Leonardo Sarto, which hurt Englands hopes of making a bigger impact through points differential. It was little comfort for Italy. "We started this tournament well and we finished negatively," Italy coach Jacques Brunel said, referring to a narrow opening loss at Wales. "Were behind in terms of what our goals were."

There was not much room to do a lot. It was a really tight checking game and really those goals were not highlight-reel goals. It was kind of like a playoff-feel goals.Tuukka Rask stopped 30 shots for the Bruins as he and Los Angeles Jonathan Quick exchanged tough saves throughout the night.Quick also finished with 30 saves, but took the loss as the Kings lost yet another close one. Los Angeles fell to 1-2-2 in its last five games, all of which were decided by two goals or less.We thought we played well again and we didnt bury our chances, said Jordan Nolan, who scored the Kings only goal. I thought it was a good hockey game. They play the same style that we do and they are exciting games to watch for the fans and we like being a part of those. Tonight, they got the better of us.Nolan broke up Rasks shutout bid on a soft wrist shot with seven minutes left in the third. It was his second goal of the season and evened the score at 1-1, but the tie didnt last long.Kelly put Boston back on top 1:33 later when he tipped in Carl Soderbergs shot. The puck was in and out of the net too quickly for the officials to see and wasnt ruled a goal until a video review confirmed it went in.I didnt even know it went in, to be honest. Thats why I was trying to get the rebound, Kelly said. I actually heard a linesman say to the ref I think that went in, so the replay works in your ffavour sometimes.dddddddddddd.The Kings continued to throw shots at Rask, but he didnt let anything past him after Nolans goal.Hes been great. Weve talked about it for a long time and you know this last month hes been on fire, Boston coach Claude Julien said. He made some huge saves at some opportune times, but so did the other guy at the other end. So you know it was a good goaltender duel tonight and a good battle overall from two teams.Marchand broke the scoreless tie on a goal with 3:40 left in the second period, then added his 15th of the season with 17 seconds left to play. Marchand directed a backhand toward the empty net and the puck slowly drifted in, just out of Jeff Carters reach as he raced to try to stop it.I didnt mean to shoot it that far at first, Marchand said. I just wanted to chip it and kind of go after it.Marchand beat Quick on a wrist shot from just inside the blue line on a drop pass from Zdeno Chara. It was Bostons first goal against the Kings since Marchand scored 8:53 into the third period of a game on Jan. 20, 2014.Tyler Toffoli just missed tying it about 2:20 into the third period on a shot that bounced hard off the post with a loud clang. It was one of just a few shots for Los Angeles that Rask didnt get a piece of as he withstood the Kings pressure in the third period.Marchand actually celebrated three goals, but only two counted. He was a second or two late on a wrist shot that beat Quick at the end of the first period. Replays showed the puck didnt cross the goal line until after time had expired and it remained scoreless heading into the second.NOTES: Los Angeles opened a five-game Eastern Conference road trip, which will include a stop at the White House on Monday while the defending Stanley Cup champion Kings are in town to play the Capitals on Monday night. ...
