Ireland rugby team captain, Rory Best says the historic win over the All Blacks is so monumental because of the amount of respect they have for New Zealand.

Speaking following the 40‑29 win over the All Blacks in Chicago, Best says Ireland plan to celebrate the victory but also stay humble.

Meanwhile, All Blacks coach Steve Hansen says there are no excuses for their defeat to Ireland as they prepared well and deserved the victory.

Ireland produced a stunning display to record a first ever win over New Zealand at the 29th attempt and end the All Blacks' run of 18 straight wins.

The All Blacks will meet Ireland in another Test match in Dublin in two weeks' time.

Meanwhile, Australia beat Wales 32‑8, Argentina demolished Japan 54-20 and the Barbarians had a 31‑31 draw with South Africa.
