Watched it live last night. The All Blacks were lucky they won. The missed a ton of key kicks and France just applied pressure way to late.

yeah All Blacks were very lucky to win that game. All Blacks were the best team in the whole tournament except in the final game.

I thought France was the better team but didn't think they dominated the game. The All Blacks defense in those final 10 minutes was monstrous...like 300 Spartans defending that pass against the Persians. NONE SHALL PASS.

The All blacks basicallyplayed well the whole game, except for a period in the 2nd half where France was taking momentum and scored the try. Otherwise All Blacks dominated more, unlucky for them, they didnt make their conversions and penalty goals early on, otherwise the score would be a lot higher and people wouldnt be saying they were dominated by France.

I watched every game of theirs in the tournament. France eliminated their running game. They were tentative and nervous and made a big blunder when France scored. France should have won that game. They outplayed them in every statistical way.
