Just over three minutes to play.

by Steven Holloway 11/9/2013 9:44:41 PM
The atmosphere is sizzling. Crowd are living every play.

by Steven Holloway 11/9/2013 9:45:12 PM
Ball goes in. Whistle blown. We will reset it. Time meanwhile, keeps on ticking.

PENALTY ALL BLACKS!

That will do it.

by Steven Holloway 11/9/2013 9:48:35 PM
There was a French hand in there and that was some anticlimax.

by Steven Holloway 11/9/2013 9:48:56 PM
The boos ring out around the ground but the All Blacks have done it.
