Great defence but mistake by the hooker.
No patience and that was the game for the taking.

Boils my piss when hookers do that. Turner did it in Scotlands 22 last week and lost a pen.

Mauvaka is generally spot on in that regard hence his try count in that area.

Big Sam gets the crucial steal to win the game. Incredible defensive effort at the end there, well over 30 phases.

Wow. That last sequence was gruelling, fantastic stuff from both sides.

Ireland have still never won a knockout game at a World Cup. Worse record than Scotland.

That was as epic as anyone could have hoped for.

WR have really fucked this up, Ireland do not deserve to go out whilst two from that other side of the draw go through

I'd pay good money to see the meltdown. Everyone will be being blamed from Barnes to Burns.

Barnes finally gives a penalty.

Well done New Zealand. Cracking performance. Sam Cane's best display for five years. Too much pace and power for Ireland, who at times looked incredibly ponderous with Sexton at walking pace for much of the second half. Great tries by NZ, too.

The best players on the pitch were all kiwis. Admittedly some of them were wearing green, but still. Excellent display.

The best Irish side there ever was and probably ever will be goes out in the quarter finals. What a story. Incredible game to watch.
