← Namibia attack · New Zealand attack →Hover a try for detail · dots = tackles made · dashed = penalty goal · orange = missed · squares = rucks · triangles = line breaks and defenders beaten · rings = turnovers · bars at the foot = zone counts · thin lines = kicks from hand = attacking entries and ball won per band
  • Tries with a dashed ring have no recorded position, so they sit in the in-goal at the end that side attacked.
