Martyn Williams
Former Wales captain on BBC Two
"Great work by Rhys Webb. Wales backed themselves to go for the try rather than the three points, and they've got their reward. It was so important to get that score. If New Zealand had got two scores in front, it would have been so difficult to get back. But they're well back in this now, Wales."

And the Millennium Stadium believes again!
Wales strike straight back as Taulupe Faletau rumbles though a hole around the fringes and turns to find the sniping Rhys Webb right in his pocket for the off-load.
Leigh Halfpenny lands the extras with ease.

"Dan Biggar's defended brilliantly tonight but that's a mismatch, one-on-one against Savea. Wales haven't really done anything wrong, but they're behind."

New Zealand come flying out of the blocks and have Wales pinned in their own 22 metre.
The hosts look to have saved themselves as they turn the ball over, but then inexplicably Leigh Halfpenny picks and goes straight into the talons of Kieran Reed.
The ball is stripped, recycled and thrown wide in a twinkle by the All Blacks. Alex Cuthbert attempts to snuff out the danger, but Conrad Smith gets an improvised pass out of his rush tackle and Julian Savea has the space to barge past Dan Biggar.

Former New Zealand lock Ali Williams on BBC Two: "Sonny Bill Williams is probably trying to do a bit too much. He hasn't played a lot of rugby. I suspect New Zealand will be more direct in the second half.
"It's going to be one of those games that could be decided by one mistake."

Does the key to this match lie hidden on one of the two benches?
Wales have the energy of Luke Charteris and Justin Tipuric to inject into the forwards, the streetwise Mike Phillips and fast feet of Liam Williams to throw at the backline.
Let's see.

"The beauty of this game is how on top the defences are. There's been no great counter-attacking. When Wales lose the ball, they are quick to get back on it and snuff out any New Zealand opportunity."

Chief sports writer at the Millennium Stadium
"Errors aplenty, and the majority of them from the mighty All Blacks. Wales might be struggling in the scrum but they're shading the breakdown and have been ferocious in defence. You'd assume the All Blacks will find their magic groove in the second half - but, after 61 long years, opportunity is knocking for Gatland's men."

"Wales have stuck to their game plan. They don't have to be Harlem Globetrotters. Their kicking has been good, their line speed's been good. It's a great Test match. Wales are putting in a lot of tackles, and I wonder if they might tire."

This has been a Test match in search of a defining moment.
It has been tight as a morning-after hamstring and a bit fragmented. One moment of quality, one clinical conversion of a half-break could be the difference.

Post-match reactionpublished at 18:22 Greenwich Mean Time 22 November 2014
Ireland captain Paul O'Connell speaking on Sky Sports: "It's hard to say where this win ranks having only just come off the field.
"We'll be very disappointed with the second 20 minutes, so to let them back in was a real shame.
"Second half, we got out of the blocks a lot quicker and sharper, so to finish and hold them off was great."

"Wales go off to a standing ovation. I suspect part of that is relief that they didn't concede. They have defended well. I just wonder if they will rue the chances they didn't take earlier in the half."

George North halts the first wave of attack with a strong tackle on Charles Piutau out wide.
And then Sonny Bill Williams spills forward in the face of ferocious tackling.
The crowd roar with relief and the teams head down the tunnel without a point between them.

More from Jamie Heaslip: "Whatever confidence we have [coach] Joe Schmidt will probably take it apart come the Christmas camp.
"But we can be really proud of those three performances this autumn."
