What happened here?

Well done Chris! :) Cheers from Portugal (Vera and Goncalo)!

Good show by Japan. A lot of other young teams couldn't have done as well as they did.

That's it here and I am sure Japan were hoping for a better performance but they were out gunned by a very exciting and clinical NZ Maori outfit

Lowe with a brilliant individual try. NZ Maori with the turnover and West passes to Lowe who puts in a chip kick and gathers it well. He runs in untouched

Second penalty try of the game after a huge scrum by Japan as they were 5m from the line. NZ Maori collapsing and good decision

Wow and the team joining super rugby will be worse than this japan side...

Professional foul by McKenzie as he steals the ball at the ruck thinking it was out. Japan were 1m short of the line. A scuffle breaks out but nothing serious

Japan earn a scrum penalty and try to set up a line out but kick the ball over the dead ball line in an attempt to get extra meters
