I just cannot begin to express how much of an honor it is for a frenchman like me to read your comments full of nice words to us and our team. We're learning everyday watching the All Blacks play rugby, and i'm learning today what it looks like to lose a game with class. Massive respect from Paris.

[@tonybarres5933]

I believe that what Romain Ntamack makes at 9:50 - 9:57 is an amazing mix of bravery, self-confidence, intelligence, talent, and even genius. This and the rest of the counter attack reminds me the brilliance of some actions made by Les Bleus in the 90's. I thought that French flair was over, especially after many years of crap rugby. Even though France played amazingly well during the first half, the All-Blacks made a spectacular come back in only 20 minutes. Ntamack's action changed the momentum, but the whole game was certainly one of the best rugby games for the last 20 years. Best regards from France

France deserved to win.

One more loss will be a threepeat. Fozzie can no longer cling to Hansen's coat tails, especially when there's a coach with almost a 100%win rate.

your over next game

[@colinmeehan791]

Not with the current ABs coaches.None of them have achieved anything as coaches.Lay the blame squarly at the feet of the NZRFU.

Missed the game so grateful for these highlights. This is the French team that everyone wants to see....they deserved the win. I noticed lots of young French faces playing in this game. The future is bright, the future is blue. Well done France. See you in the 6 Nations.

[@pokeyhat4711]

The two best teams in the world when they're at the top of their game and this time Les Bleus are deserved winners......and that's praise coming from an Englishman! France for the Six Nations is definitely worth a punt. I just love this game!

[@paulfitz6614]

Sweet jebus, that pass from Romain Ntamack ... Well done France. Exciting rugby.

[@robertparryjones765]

France are amazing

[@isidro-9710]

Ntamack what a player !

[@hillsy333]

After watching the wallabies Wales game, I was really down on the game and what a bad state it was in with over officiating. Then I watched these highlights and saw the beauty of Rugby again. What a game.

[@Rodz-vg2el]

Good game France, well done from N.Z.

[@joedennehy386]

Well played France, a complete performance. Will make things interesting in years to come, you cannot be sad when they play such beautiful rugby. The old combination of savagery, and art. Sublime

[@rapatel1642]

Great game France - deserved winners

[@asstab]

Ces petits bleus nous ont tellement rempli le cœur de fierté ! Well prepared and inspired. Going for it right from the start and scoring early pushed the blacks under pressure. Probably their loss to Ireland were still in their heads. And even when they were coming back, the French didn't crack, keeping on throwing generous play. That was intense rugby !

[@carlhenry4623]

Well done France you gave us a belting. Can't take anything away from your display of brilliance

[@philt7278]

From England well played to an amazing French team, keep playing like that and the 6 nations will be brilliant.

[@broaderperceptions2952]

AB fan here, but love this French team. They are playing with some skill. Without the expertise of Wayne Smith, the ABs defense looks like a mess...leaking like a sieve....lots to work on for Fossy.

[@maximerueda3448]

Don't worry all blacks, you're still the best team in the world, I say it as a french guy. Your team is the dream team of our sport, when you are a young player in the french landside, you dream about the NZ. The all black shirt, the haka, a team from a country from the other side of the world with great and strong culture, some of the best players in the rugby history. Look at those french kids in blue, they have stars in the eyes when they play against the NZ. So your the best team in the history for sure but sometimes something happen and we can have a great game like this, where the magic of the sport operate and the small team beat the Big One. Wich for the all black team the best and we will see each other again in the world cup in France.

[@terrykirby-fahey7363]

Its an old boys club. Its now Fosters turn. Whether he is good enough or not is irrelevant. The coaching, the game strategies, are all in the past. Other countries team Coaches have worked the ABs out. The one thing that is very obvious and was demonstrated by the Irish is "physicality" for 80 minutes. ABs aren't trained to handle that. In fact It came as somewhat of a surprise to Foster - ABs don't have a forward pack that are physically dominate like the Boks. Its not in the ABs culture to be "Thuggishly" dominating.

[@williammarshall1629]

wonderful rugby game from both sides . french flair is so exciting and refreshing

As a French much respect for the all blacks. At the pause we were dominating but i told my friend "they will come back at us with all they got", thankfully we won but the All Black's mental is worth respect !

[@tezuka526]

What a great game! Thanks NZ and France! Awesome stuff!

[@danielleradola6117]

I agree it was an amazing match! Bravo aux deux équipes ! 👍👏👏

Best commentary team in the world, their enthusiasm not just for the All Blacks but for quality attacking rugby from the opposition really enhances the TV experience. Whenever possible I watch the NZ broadcast. Quinn and Marshall, is it? They're fantastic
