The All Blacks delivered a dominant and ruthless performance in the Rugby World Cup, defeating Uruguay 73-0 and securing their spot in the quarter-finals with ease.

In the lopsided match, New Zealand ran in a total of 11 tries, highlighting their attacking intent. Leicester Fainga’anuku led the scoring with three tries, while Will Jordan and Damian McKenzie each contributed two tries. Cam Roigard, Fletcher Newell, Richie Mo’unga, and Tamaiti Williams also added one try each to the tally.

This victory placed the All Blacks at the top of Pool A with 15 points, two ahead of the host nation, France, who will claim the group’s top spot if they defeat Italy.

The All Blacks, under the coaching of Ian Foster, displayed their dominance even after losing tighthead prop Tyrel Lomax to injury early in the match.

Their next challenge will be in the quarter-finals, where they will face one of the contenders from Ireland, South Africa, or Scotland in their quest for a spot in the last four.
