Both sides have scored some brilliant tries with the All Blacks rushing into a 17 – 0 lead before a Welsh resurgence brought them back into the game through a sensational Rio Dyer try.

The All Blacks fired back through a world class crossfield kick try from Richie Mo’unga to Jordie Barrett.

Reaching into the skies Barrett went right over the top of Dyer to give the visitors some breathing space at 22 – 10.

Wales then kicked a late penalty after a sustained period of pressure in the All-Blacks half.

The major takeaway thus far are that the All Blacks have really brought a physical edge at points that Wales have struggled to match.
