Mark Strange and Lauren McCann

  1. Ireland 0-19 New Zealand

    A massive boot from Dannah O'Brien bounces towards the line and Amee-Leigh Costigan chases it.

    It bounces agonisingly over the dead ball line. So near yet so far!

  2. Ireland 0-19 New Zealand

    Renee Holmes finds Jorja Miller with a cross-field kick and, after the flanker makes ground, the full back goes for another one.

    However, it bounces in front of Braxton Sorensen-McGee and she can't field it's so scum down Ireland.

  3. Ireland 0-19 New Zealand

    Ireland have themselves a scrum on the 22 but have lost co-captain Edel McMahon to injury.

    New Zealand look very sharp, they know what they're doing. It's a different team from the first two games.

  5. Ireland 0-19 New Zealand

    Ireland are on the front foot, five metres out with a penalty advantage!

  6. Kick-off

    Ireland 0-19 New Zealand

    We are back underway in Brighton!

    Ireland need to be more physically aggressive and have that line speed when playing against New Zealand.

    Ireland's game management needs to be better in the second half.

  9. 'Black Ferns have the upper hand tactically'

    If you're a Black Ferns fan you'd be smiling right now. Tactically, the Black Ferns have the upper hand. They came here to shut down Dannah O'Brien all they have done is put pressure on her. They sprinkled some Waaka magic too.

  10. Half-time

    Ireland 0-19 New Zealand

    New Zealand lead at the break as Ireland have not been able to register any points so far. It has been a champions' performance so far from the Black Ferns.

    Nobody gets a touch on her, it is a great finish.

    Try: Ireland 0-19 New Zealand

    Braxton Sorensen-McGee (con Holmes)

    Another wonderful New Zealand try! This time, Stacey Waaka goes around Dannah O'Brien and gives it to the youngster Sorensen-McGee.

    O'Brien, to her credit, tries to cover, but the winger is like a slalom skier as she weaves in and out to go over in the corner for a brilliant individual try.

    Renee Holmes nails the touchline conversion again.

  14. Ireland 'need to find their way into the game'

    Ireland 0-12 New Zealand

    I wonder if Ireland got too up for it at the start, with the atmosphere and the Haka. It is about trying to find their way into the game, they haven't had a lot of territory or possession.

  15. Black Ferns in the ascendency

    New Zealand 12-0 Ireland

    New Zealand have held the upper hand for the majority of the first half.

  16. Ireland 0-12 New Zealand

    Stacey Flood exits and is replaced by Nancy McGillivray. We wish her all the best.

    Ireland put the penalty into the corner but concede a penalty at the breakdown.

    I really hope Stacey Flood is okay, she is really so important to this Ireland team, but she doesn't look comfortable.

  18. Ireland 0-12 New Zealand

    Stacey Flood wins a tremendous turnover in the middle of the park but it may have come at a cost as she is down clutching her ankle.

  19. Ireland 0-12 New Zealand

    Anna Caplice
    Former Ireland international on BBC iPlayer

    Ireland to need to go a bit quicker off the ruck.

  20. Ireland 0-12 New Zealand

    More uncharacteristic handling errors from the Black Ferns let Ireland off the hook again. Another scrum inside the 22.
