  1. New Zealand 34-25 France

    Three to go. France need to find something, and fast.

    They are in the 22 but New Zealand are driving them back.

  2. New Zealand 34-25 France

    We're into the final five minutes.

    Cam Roigard and Maxime Lucu come off for Cortez Ratima and Nolann Le Garrec.

    France have a scrum just outside the 22.

    New Zealand 34-25 France

    Fast and close game... Come on The All Blacks!

    Rex, Rotorua

    Supposed to drive to Dublin this morning. Not going anywhere with rugby this good!

    Shane, Dublin

    France are sorely missing LBB lots of moments where I think his X factor could have changed the game.

  4. New Zealand 34-25 France

    New Zealand are absorbing the French attack here, being very careful not to give away a penalty.

  5. New Zealand 34-25 France

    Wallace Sititi gathers the line out but is hammered for his troubles.

    He secured the ball and Cam Roigard hammers it clear with a superb kick.

    France have the throw but they are closer to halfway than the New Zealand line.

  6. New Zealand 34-25 France

    France intercept the ball in the New Zealand half but Killian Tixeront is smothered before he can get up to speed.

    Jalibert dinks the ball through once again and it dribbles into touch.

    Huge pressure on the New Zealand throw.

    Try - New Zealand 34-25 France

    Will Jordan

    Is that the clincher? Will Jordan is over for the All Blacks!

    Luke Jacobson finds the wing with a lovely offload, and he races over for his second try of the game.

    Ruben Lobe is off target with the conversion, so maybe this one isn't over yet! France need two scores.

  8. New Zealand 29-25 France

    We're into the final 10 minutes.

    I had to sit through an extra 30 minutes of Egypt v Australia at the World Cup. Can we not have another half hour of this, please?

    I don't want this to end.

    New Zealand 29-25 France

    How rugby should be played! Fantastic.

    Andy, Canterbury

    The contrast between how the two teams attack the incredible. Dave Rennie's teams have always been very good at attacking the breakdown, which is evident today, while France don't seem interested at all in winning turnovers.

    Luke, Germany

    France v New Zealand, never a dull moment.

  10. New Zealand 29-25 France

    New Zealand win a free-kick for an early shove at the scrum and Cam Roigard hammers it clear.

  11. New Zealand 29-25 France

    New Zealand win a scrum after full-back Max used all his Spring to leap into the air from the kick-off, but he could only knock it on.

  12. Penalty - New Zealand 29-25 France

    Ruben Love

    New Zealand's lead is up to four. Just 15 minutes left.

  13. New Zealand 26-25 France

    Savea points to the posts. This is a banker.

  14. New Zealand 26-25 France

    New Zealand are camped in the French 22 as they chip towards the line....and they win the penalty.

    What do you do here if you are Savea? Points or into the corner?

  15. New Zealand 26-25 France

    Maxime LucuGetty Images

    Maxime Lucu with a visual representation of how I'm feeling. I feel ya, Maxime.

  16. New Zealand 26-25 France

    Matthieu Jalibert knocks it on in his own 22 while under pressure from Will Jordan.

    This is a good platform for the All Blacks.

  17. New Zealand 26-25 France

    One thing we have to keep an eye on in this new Nations Championship is bonus points, which we aren't really used to in the old-school summer Tests.

    New Zealand have theirs in the bag, France need one more score.

    This is a bold take, but I don't think the try scoring is done for either side, somehow....

    End to end stuff, great game.

  19. New Zealand 26-25 France

    Just 20 minutes remain in Christchurch and there's only one point between them.

    Your guess is as good as mine as to who goes on and wins this one.

  20. try

    Try - New Zealand 26-25 France

    Theo Attissogbe

    Theo Attissoge races over after another flowing French move...but was he in touch?

    This is close. And I mean close.

    The wing could have touched down way before he did clip the white line, but he just about gets away with it to finally get the third French try.

    He's a cool, cool customer.

    Maxime Lucu is off target from out wide, and New Zealand still lead by one.
