The second Rugby World Cup quarter-final – and it’s arguably the big one as the number one side in theIreland head coach Andy Farrell has kept faith with the starting team that convincingly defeated Scotland last time out, as they look to book a semi-final place for the first time. The only two changes to the match-day team are on the bench, with Joe McCarthy replacing the injured second row James Ryan, and Jimmy O’Brien coming in for Stuart McCloskey.
New Zealand, meanwhile, after losing in the pool phase for the first time, won’t want their tournament to end at this stage for just the second time in their history. The first – and, so far, only – time? At RWC 2007, hosted by France.
