But the clash didn&apos;t come without its controversy after a massive brawl broke out at the start of the second half.<\/p>\n<p>Ireland were incensed when Scottish full-back Ollie Smith &#8211; who was soon sin-binned for his actions &#8211; tripped up opposing fly-half Johnny Sexton. Leinster legend Sexton fired back before the melee erupted, and Scotland prop Pierre Schoeman sent Irish hooker Dan Sheehan backwards over an advertisement hoarding in the process.<\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE:<\/b><b> Rugby World Cup has another mass brawl as Ireland and Scotland star thrown over hoardings <\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE:<\/b><b> England fans fume as Owen Farrell times out while losing to Samoa in Rugby World Cup first <\/b><\/p>\n<p>The usually stoic Peter O&apos;Mahony was a part of that chaos and was again involved in a scuffle later in the match.
