    It's the persistency of New Zealand, how strong they carry.

    They are patient in their attack and they are rewarded for that at the end.

    Luka Connor.

    And that's the half century.

    Woodman went close but was halted by Joyce - again. They've had a good tussle.

    But New Zealand's forwards were in support.

    There was a suspicion of a knock-on but hooker Connor shoves her way over for a second try of the night.

    Demant again misses the conversion from the left.

    Lowri Norket is back on to replace her replacement Webb who is hobbling off almost in tears. That's a shame for the young wing.

    Hazel Tubic on for NZ.

    Meg Webb has only been on the pitch for 10 minutes but is down again for Wales, she's struggling.

    As is New Zealand number eight Liana Mikaele-Tu'u.

    The game has become quite scrappy with all the stoppages for replacements and that yellow card.

    It's possibly helped Wales stem the tide.

    Wales are just in damage limitation mode.

    Wales going through the phases but not making much ground and eventually they kick.

    As much as your passion, adrenaline, everything is high, you have to be disciplined as well.

    Wales down to 14 players but are actually having a spell with the ball.

    That's the best way to eat up the clock.

    Yep, she's off for 10 minutes.

    It wasn't about the timing of the tackle - but the tackler has a responsibility not to dump the opponent on their head.

    Williams-Morris could be in trouble here for that tip-tackle on Ruby Tui. Legs went up in the air.

    Lleucu George comes on for her first appearance of the World Cup.

    And starts with a great kick up field.

    Megan Webb also on.

    Unfortunately that came from a Welsh mistake. New Zealand don't let you get away with any mistake.

    They were queuing up there to score.

    Wales mistake, Kendra Cocksedge takes the quick tap penalty and then it was just a numbers game.

    Demant misses the conversion.

    Wales need to drop their height in the scrum to push back, I hope they can pull it all together and have a good last 30 minutes.

    Wales bring on flanker Georgia Evans and prop Gwenllian Pyrs for her first appearance of the World Cup. What a moment for the north Walian.

    Wales just look fatigued now, and as the defence fatigues, New Zealand's attack just seem like they are getting stronger and stronger.
