Ireland did nothing with that man advantage there.

That penalty NZ got looks vital here. More than 3 point gap
Great game but error strewn for Ireland.
Haven’t been at their best but NZ have been immense.
Yeah, looks done now.
Not you
France 99' about to be usurped for greatest Rugby moment ever....
How many phases already 
32 so farHow many phases already
Wow.
Breathtaking stuff. Well done NZ
Wow what a phase of play there. Ireland look shattered.
2-0 to the Southern Hemisphere
Well done NZ. Well played Ireland. That was an epic.
Kenny Out
Full credit to New Zealand for a magnificent performance, the better side on the day went through but feck that feels like the most gutting one of all given the form this team had and the fact that they actually did so much stuff well and still couldn't win.
Amazing finish.
NZ were fantastic the last ten.

Holy shit, the ABs are amazing

amazing effort from Ireland
don't think I've ever wanted another country to win more than that

Only have a little rugby knowledge, but surely that was Ireland’s best chance in forever
Phenomenal effort by both. South Africa-France you have a stunningly massive mountain to climb to follow that one.
So did NZ raise their game?
Not a big rugby fan at all, but that was thrilling stuff
One of the best games of rugby I have ever seen. That deserved to be a final.
One of the greatest rugby games ever played.
Haven't watched a game with my jaw on the floor the whole 80 minutes in a long time. Just incredible all round.

It was now or never. I don't think Ireland will ever be as good again
That was a game of Rugby
NZ were flawless. Made maybe one or two errors in 80 minutes. Outrageous performance. And we still ran them close. What a game of rugby.
Would have been great for Rugby to see Ireland win, a new name on the trophy.
Those last 5 minutes were intense
Great game - too many people counted out NZ.
New Zealand - unbelievable
Well, I’m 0 from 2 and £120 worse off. Time to stop betting on rugby

Magnificent game between two world class sides. NZ silence their critics. What a team. Commiserations to Ireland but you guys should hold your heads up high after that. Just fell short.
Looks like we might get a southern hemisphere last four.

i assume the irish and welsh are supporting england now.
They were great, especially when you consider they had a quarter of the game a man less.
Aki, Keenan, Savea, Cane, Jordie Barrett with performances that should be talked about for a long time. This is brutal for the Ireland psyche though.
That’s brutal for Ireland. Absolutely fecking brutal
