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.
Fullback Rob Kearney spoke after the game and declared today an ‘awesome day for the Irish.’
“It’s an awesome day for this team and the 28 teams that have gone before us.”@IrishRugby‘s @KearneyRob #IREvNZL https://t.co/pNT4IXDaBF
