Highlights: New Zealand v Namibia - Rugby World Cup 2019
A clinical second half performance saw New Zealand thump Namibia 71-9 in the Rugby World Cup in a Pool B clash. Namibia opened the scoring with an early penalty, but the All Blacks hit back with two tries to lead 10-3. Namibia kept the scoreboard ticking over, slotting two penalties to pull within a point of their more fancied opponents with 10 minutes of the first half to play. New Zealand then picked up a yellow card, but despite their numerical disadvantage ran in a further two tries to take a 24-9 lead into the break. The All Blacks had looked a bit disjointed in the first half, lacking their usual fluidity in attack, but were at their mercurial best in the second, completely dominating both territory and possession to run in seven tries to bring their tally for the match up to eleven in a comprehensive victory.
