As the autumn leaves fell and the chill of Turin set in, the New Zealand All Blacks took on the Italian national rugby team at Allianz Stadium for their season finale. With high stakes at play, and a support team filled with names that could send jitters down the spines of even the most hardened opponents, New Zealand strutted in as the clear favorites. Under the watchful eye of coach Scott Robertson, the All Blacks were eager not just to conclude the tour on a high note, but to showcase the skills that have made them the most feared team in rugby history.
The first half saw a few hiccups for the All Blacks, but by the halftime whistle, they managed to carve out a lead of 17-6, thanks to extraordinary efforts from halfback Cam Roigard and fullback Will Jordan. The scores reflected the resilience and determination of the Kiwis, much to the delight of their far-flung supporters back home in New Zealand. Missing out on the early points didnโt seem to rattle the team spirit; rather, it ignited a fire among the players who were determined to be remembered for a decisive triumph.
In a second half that featured tactical flair and sheer physicality, the All Blacks overcame the chilly conditions and stuck it to the Italians. Their 29-11 victory was stunning yet satisfying, marking not just the end of a challenging tour but also evoking heartfelt goodbyes from the legends of the game. As veterans Sam Cane and TJ Perenara played their last matches in the iconic black jersey, the stadium echoed with chants of respect and appreciation for their contribution to New Zealand rugby.
