Ireland have done it!
The wait is over after over a century, Ireland have beaten the mighty All Blacks by a staggering 40 points to 29 in one of the greatest test matches we have ever seen in rugby.
5 amazing tries and what can only be described as a monumental effort by every single player on the pitch. The streak has been defeated, the wait is over, Ireland have secured their first win over the All Blacks after 111 years of trying.
All Blacks captain Kieran Read was interviewed after the game and congratulated Ireland, saying they were deserving of their victory.
Top class from the number 8.
