Johnny Sexton smashed Ireland’s individual points record as his side edged closer to the Rugby World Cup quarter-finals with a crushing 59-16 bonus-point victory over Tonga.
He scored one of the eight tries to become his country's all-time leading points scorer.
The influential fly-half surpassed Ronan O’Gara’s all-time tally of 1,083 with the fourth of his side’s eight tries.
Mr Sexton says the record means a lot, but winning means more.
