www.bbc.co.ukHere are the latest Wales vs Italy updates I found just now:
Wales edged Italy 31-17 in Cardiff, ending a three-year Six Nations win drought for Wales and snapping a 15-game losing streak in the tournament. This was Wales’ first Six Nations win at home since 2022. It featured Aaron Wainwright scoring two tries in the first half, with Dewi Lake and Dan Edwards also crossing, securing a bonus-point win for Wales.

There are many historical references to Wales vs Italy in prior tournaments (ranging from 2014 to 2025), but the most recent visible result is Wales’ 31-17 Six Nations win in Cardiff in March 2026. If you’re looking for a specific format (match report, highlights video, or a live blog), I can pull that up. [BBC/Independent/ Sky Sports-style reports and recaps from 2024–2026]
