Wales Women to Play Italy in Six Nations Finale at Principality Stadium

Wales Women’s Rugby Team Set to Make History at Principality Stadium

Wales will be making history this Saturday as they take on Italy in their Women’s Six Nations finale at the iconic Principality Stadium in Cardiff. With almost 10,000 tickets already sold, this match is set to break the record for the largest crowd at a stand-alone women’s Test match, surpassing the previous record of 8,500 set last year.

Captain Hannah Jones expressed her gratitude to the fans for their unwavering support during a challenging period for the team, who are looking to secure their first win of the campaign. After a disappointing run of results, including seven consecutive losses, the team is determined to turn things around and end the season on a high note.

Head coach Ioan Cunningham emphasized the importance of focusing on their performance and securing a bonus-point win to avoid finishing at the bottom of the table. Despite the pressure, Cunningham is confident in his team’s abilities and is hopeful that they can deliver a strong performance on the big stage.

Following the Wales vs. Italy match, the Welsh Rugby Union will host the national women’s finals day, featuring teams competing in the cup, plate, and bowl competitions. Cunningham sees this as a celebration of women’s rugby in Wales and an opportunity to showcase the talent and dedication of female players in the country.

As the anticipation builds for this historic event, all eyes will be on the Principality Stadium this Saturday as Wales looks to make a statement and end their season on a high note. Don’t miss the action, live on BBC One, BBC iPlayer, and BBC Radio Wales.
