Ireland head coach Andy Farrell has admitted his side's performance in the Autumn Test win over Fiji was "pretty underwhelming".

The Irish fell behind to a well-worked early Fiji score before regrouping to eventually win 35-17.

Farrell says he was pleased for first-time captain Tadhg Fur-long and the three debutants but was left unimpressed by his side's display.

Having opened the autumn campaign with an absorbing win over world champions South Africa, Ireland looked sluggish at times against Fiji.
