Match Commentary

82'		And that's that! Eleven tries in total for the All Blacks as they run out 71-9 winners over Namibia. Full-time \| @allblacks get their third win at #RWC2019 after beating @RugbyNamibia 71-9 #NZLvNAM pic.twitter.com/vLpmBvZshS — Rugby World Cup (@rugbyworldcup) October 6, 2019
81'+1		71-9 End of second half
80'		What. A. Try! TJ Perenara starts a break from inside his own 22, is tackled, is up off the deck and then receives a brilliant Brad Weber behind-the-back pass before crashing over just millimetres before being tackled into touch. Even Steve Hansen was up out of his seat! Jordie Barrett misses the conversion and it's 71-9 to the All Blacks.
