Kiwis top Group C

Friday 28 October 2022, New Zealand 48 Ireland 10 - Rugby League World Cup, Group C Game, Headingley

Good crowd, great atmosphere and Ireland were actually leading for a few minutes!! Crowd enjoyed the two Irish try's at the same time impressed with the skills of the Kiwi team, the NZ team may be concerned that they missed a number of conversion chances.

NZ were always going to win but were helped by a ref who seemed to give any 50/50 decision the New Zealand way and they possibly should have finished with 12 players with the Kiwi, Waerea-Hargreaves escaping with 10 minutes in the sin-bin when many thought it was red card offence.
