The All Blacks arrive rather confident on Irish soil after their first victory, not without difficulty, last Saturday against the English (22-24). This Friday evening, at the <a href="https://www.archysport.com/2022/02/irelands-dream-of-the-2023-world-cup-starts-here-against-italy/" title="Ireland's dream of the 2023 World Cup starts here against Italy”>Aviva Stadium in Dublin, will blow like a feeling of déjà vu. The two teams played a little over a year ago in an unforgettable quarter-final won by the New Zealanders (24-28) at the Stade de France, during the 2023 World Cup.
This shock marks the launch of the fall tour for the XV du Trèfle. A victory at home against the All Blacks would build confidence before facing Argentina (November 15), Fiji (23) and finally Australia (30). But Scott Robertson’s New Zealanders will be keen to defeat their opponents since, out of their last five clashes, three have been won by the Irish.
The test match between Ireland and New Zealand will kick off this Friday, November 8 at 9:10 p.m., at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin. The match can be followed on beIN Sports 2.
