Victorious without shining last week in Japan (31-38), New Zealand was more convincing this Saturday in Cardiff.

The All Blacks largely dominated the Welsh (23-55) whom they had already thrashed last year (16-54).

“We are delighted to come here and produce this kind of performance and the end result, we did not expect it, reacted New Zealand coach Ian Foster at the microphone of Amazon Prime Video.

I think we were really disciplined and efficient in what we wanted to do.

Captain Justin Tipuric's teammates resisted fiercely, though, despite already trailing 0-17 after 18 minutes and a brace from All Black hooker Codie Taylor.

The Welsh 3rd line scored a strong try which allowed his team to come back to six points (23-29, 50th).

A dream last half hour for the All Blacks

But the three Barrett brothers and their colleagues then went it alone in the last half hour, scoring four more tries (eight in total).

"They put a lot of pressure and we weren't good enough to get away from it," Wales manager Wayne Pivac said on Amazon Prime Video.

Pivac insisted on the realism of his opponents: “Almost every time they came into our 22 meters, they left with points.

It is very worrying.
