When Aaron Smith crossed over to score lastnight, he was visibly emotional about scoring for the All Blacks.

Some fans may have thought it was because it was a Rugby World Cup quarter-final, or it was the first try of the match, or it was a quick manoeuvre by the halfback that caught the Irish napping.

But Smith told 1 NEWS after the 46-14 win it was something much more meaningful to him.

Smith says there was lots of emotion because his little boy was in the grandstand.

In tonight's quarter-finals, Wales will take on France at 7.15 while Japan will take on South Africa at 10.15.
