What a game, what a performance from Ireland.
New Zealand have got their revenge but not without controversy. Following Ireland’s famous win in Chicago, the All Blacks have got one back with 21-9 win over Joe Schmidt’s men in Dublin.

The All Blacks were cynical, Ireland were heroic. Schmidt should be damn proud of his men.
