    Ireland will be eyeing a bonus point now. Maybe even two.

    Pretty controlled from All Blacks. Great skills on show.

    David, Edinburgh

    NZ are just better in pretty much every aspect of the game. Ireland have barely had a chance all night to play the way they want to play but they have executed inside the 22.

    Converted try - New Zealand 35-21 Ireland

    Hugo Keenan (con Sam Prendergast)

    Sam Prendergast delays his pass to then send Hugo Keenan over in the corner. Prendergast nails the extras from the touchline.

    Classy stuff.

    An unbelievable kick to touch by Sam Prendergast. So aggressive.

  5. New Zealand 35-14 Ireland

    Quinn Tupaea dives at the ball and knocks it on. It is a penalty only.

    Superb kick right into the corner by Sam Prendergast.

    Ireland look like a team at the end of a long season. It's not necessarily about winning now, it's about finishing strong.

  7. New Zealand 35-14 Ireland

    Ciaran Frawley and Bundee Aki are back on. Stuart McCloskey and Jimmy O’Brien depart.

  8. New Zealand 35-14 Ireland

    Sean Jansen is on against his native country. He'll be loving this.

    James Ryan makes way.

    It was always going to be difficult in the second half, but it's a long way back for Ireland now.

    New Zealand have exploited them out wide.

    Converted try - New Zealand 35-14 Ireland

    Damian McKenzie (con Ruben Love)

    A class above. Sharps hands and over goes Damian McKenzie.

    They made that look so easy. Ruben Love went close before McKenzie picked and dived over.

    New Zealand have taken their foot off the gas in this half. They need to do more from the line-out. They aren’t even trying to make the line-out contested for Ireland. You have to play harder against an Irish team that does not give up.

    Mango, Scotland

    As always, New Zealand have got the basics and the fundamentals right. Ireland are struggling with catching passes and making too many fundamental errors. That’s the difference.

    Mike, Southampton

    Ireland peaked a few years ago, now clearly steps behind NZ, SA and France

  13. New Zealand 28-14 Ireland

    New Zealand win a penalty. Ireland are holding on....

  14. New Zealand 28-14 Ireland

    New Zealand have wrestled back control. Jordie Barrett finds space, and Hugo Keenan steps out as he attempts to keep the ball in.

    Big win for the All Blacks.

    Finally Ireland get a call and a try follows. Come on Ireland!

    Marc, Jersey

    Handling errors are the difference

  16. New Zealand 28-14 Ireland

    New Zealand clear, but this is all Ireland. Just as things get going, Sam Prendergast's pass is over the head of Jimmy O’Brien.

  17. New Zealand 28-14 Ireland

    Another quick try by Ireland would make this interesting.

    That was Ireland's best passage of play of the entire game.

    Sam Prendergast pops a penalty into the corner.
