    Adrian Chess via email: We need to be calm and clinical in the second half. That means a new Wales.

    New Zealand are renowned for scoring either side of the half-time break and Wales are clearly determined to keep them out. It's ear-splitting in here.

    "The key statistic from that first half is the yards made. 200 for New Zealand and only 90 for Wales which shows they are making those half breaks and making ground."

    "Jamie Roberts is making good headway and making the All Blacks defence concentrate on him, and that may be why Sonny Bill Williams has been struggling."

    Former Wales and British and Irish Lions scrum-half Gareth Edwards has his say on S4C's Y Clwb Rygbi: "All credit to Wales. They deserve their points and they should be in front."

    "Wales have matched them up front and New Zealand are making sloppy mistakes. This is anyone's game."

  8. HALF-TIMEpublished at 18:21 Greenwich Mean Time 22 November 2014

    Wave after wave of New Zealand attackers descend on the Welsh try-line, but first George North holds out Charles Piutau and then after a series of close range snipes the ball is spun wide to Sonny Bill Williams who knocks on. The half-time whistle is greeted by a huge roar from the home fans.

    Terrific defence, but the All Blacks have dominated possession.

    Minute and a half to go before the interval and New Zealand have an attacking scrum 15 yards out after Lydiate knocks on.

    Penalty at the scrum - but it's to Wales not the All Blacks. Big relief for Wales on their own 22.

  12. Big hitspublished at 18:15 Greenwich Mean Time 22 November 2014

    Huge attack by the All Blacks but there's no way through and eventually Sonny Bill Williams knocks on. But that means a scrum and all eyes are on Paul James.

    Sam Warburton leads a charge up the middle after Leigh Halfpenny appeared to knock on a high kick. But a forward pass to Alex Cuthbert sees the chance go begging.

    "Three of the six penalties against Wales have been against Paul James at the scrummage."

    "The New Zealand back row have been quiet. Wales have competed well at the breakdown."

    Wayne Barnes is not happy with the Welsh scrum, and loose-head Paul James in particular. He issues a stern warning and threatens him with a yellow card after three offences.

  19. Ouch!published at 18:06 Greenwich Mean Time 22 November 2014

    Wales are struggling around the fringes of the rucks and mauls with the All Blacks tackling in pairs and making the Welsh earn their yards. That's why they call them the hard yards!

    "That's disappointing to give away that penalty. There's big pressure coming from Owen Franks on Paul James' side of the scrum."
