Rugby now and despite an impressive Welsh performance, New Zealand

secured a 27th consecutive win over Wales at Eden Park.

:04:01.:04:02.

From Auckland - Scrum Five's Ross Harries reports.

:04:03.:04:06.

Eden Park is among rugby's most imposing venues.

:04:07.:04:08.

The All Blacks haven't lost to Wales for 22 years, and were in no mood

:04:09.:04:12.

We had to be brave, we had to be bold.

:04:58.:05:01.

We did that and we played some good rugby.

:05:02.:05:03.

We scored a couple of tries and could have scored a couple more.

:05:04.:05:07.

So New Zealand's unbeaten run at Eden Park continues,

:05:08.:05:09.

but there are records that were made to be broken.

:05:10.:05:13.

Wales have never beaten the All Blacks in New Zealand,

:05:14.:05:15.

but they have two more opportunities to do so.

:05:16.:05:20.
