    Try Luka Connor, con Ruahei Demant

    Quickly taken line-out and the hooker is driven over.

    NZ took the throw so quickly that Wales were hardly set. Then it was just a case of brute force as the black jerseys shove the replacement over.

    What an impact off the bench.

    New Zealand are just so hard to predict, they are just enjoying playing what's in front of them.

    In a way this is how New Zealand play better...which is quite worrying for the Welsh team.

    Oh and they make an immediate impact at that scrum. Devastating.

    Black Ferns bring on front-rows Luka Connor and Krystal Murray.

    Brave tackle there from Joyce to bring down the much bigger Woodman. That's the spirit.

    A classic New Zealand try.

    Try Woodman, con Demant

    She's got the record - and who could say she doesn't deserve it.

    That is Portia Woodman's 20th World Cup try, taking her clear of England's Sue Day on the all-time list.

    It was actually a pretty simple finish after the speed of New Zealand's transition from defence into attack.

    New Zealand 26-3 Wales

    Big blow for Wales to lose the experience and power of number eight Sioned Harries - who scored tries against Australia and New Zealand in the pool stage.

    Kelsey Jones and Georgia Evans have replaced Carys Phillips and Sioned Harries at half-time.

    Kendra Cocksedge gets the second half underway.

    The next 40 minutes is going to be more about pride than anything else for Wales.

    I really hope Lleucu George gets on quite early.

    She is one of the most skilful players I've ever played with, she can bring an element to the game where Wales are lacking.

    HT: New Zealand 26-3 Wales

    Tui and Woodman have now scored 10 tries between them in this tournament.

    Can anyone stop them?

    Unless something incredible happens, it looks like France are next to try.

    It's a really hard place to be for Wales at the moment. If they take their foot off the gas, New Zealand really exploit that.

    I think Wales are matching the physicality, it's just the skillset and the accuracy of New Zealand they aren't matching at the moment.

    HT: New Zealand 26-3 Wales

    Wales actually haven't done that much wrong.

    The scrum has held, the line-out has worked and they have tackled their socks off - but they are just struggling to match the sheer physicality of the Black Ferns pack.

    And when you have the likes of Demant, Fitzpatrick, Tui and Woodman out the back, they are simply devastating.

    The pace those backs play at is a lesson for any team.

    A bruising half for Wales - the Black Ferns were clinical.

    Amy Rule, con Ruahei Demant

    The prop crashes over but that was all about Woodman.

    She was loitering in midfield waiting for the inside pass from Fluhler and then she stepped on the gas.

    Wales managed to haul her down but the support was there to get a fourth try.

    That was a great clearance kick from Elinor Snowsill.

    That part of her game has really improved since working with Ospreys fly-half Stephen Myler in the summer.

    It relieves some of the pressure on Wales.

    Wales have been defending for most of this game.
