Six Nations LIVE: England ace drops retirement hint as Jamie George shows true colours | Rugby | Sport

There will be plenty of nerves in Cardiff tomorrow as Wales host Italy desperate to avoid the Six Nations wooden spoon.

Wales must triumph if they want to avoid finishing last – which would be their first time at the bottom since 2003.

Italy will also be desperate to show they have what it takes to compete in the Six Nations after regularly finishing bottom in years gone by.

And Italy head coach Gonzalo Quesada says the pressure is on both sides.

« A very difficult match awaits us. The pressure will be on both teams, » Quesada told the Italian Rugby Federation’s official website.

« Wales are hungry for points, and they will say goodbye to one of their greatest players of recent years – George North.

« In all, or almost all, of their (Six Nations) matches they had the opportunity to play on equal terms with their opponents for certain moments.

« In the second half against Scotland and in the first hour of the battles against England and France, so the defeats that have come are not really that bad. »
