FULL TIME! 73-0. New Zealand have won convincingly after a struggle in the opening 20 minutes. That is the end of Uruguay for this World Cup while New Zealand will feature in the quarters. Against who remains to be seen.

CONVERSION! BARRETT! 73-0. Barrett slots another.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! FAINGA'ANUKU! 71-0. Hat-trick for the All Black winger as he drives over from close range. Uruguay have given up the ghost here.

CONVERSION! BARRETT! 66-0. Barrett takes over kicking duties and slots it on a slight angle.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! WILLIAMS! 64-0. This is a score from close range by New Zealand. Instead of going wide, the forwards take control and Williams drives over to score.

CONVERSION! MCKENZIE! 59-0. They are not giving McKenzie the easy kicks tonight but he is slotting them from touch.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! FAINGA'ANUKU! 57-0. This is ugly now, far too easy. Simple hands from their own half sees Fainga'anuku go over without any issue.

CONVERSION! MCKENZIE! 52-0. McKenzie slots it from the touchline with Mo'unga off the field.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! JORDAN! 50-0. Half-century is up for the All Blacks. Off the back of the scrum, the hands are too good for the Uruguay defence.

All Blacks have another scrum under the Uruguayan posts. Last two ended in tries.

New Zealand knock it on just on the Uruguay 22. At least a few minutes since the last try.

Uruguay have a penalty on halfway. The ball is put out inside the New Zealand 22.

Uruguay have a scrum inside the All Black half. Can they make this position count?

CONVERSION! MO'UNGA! 45-0. Mo'unga converts from around 20 meters in from touch.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! MCKENZIE! 43-0. Another try and McKenzie's second. All started with the All Blacks scrumming Uruguay off their own ball. Good phases by the three-time world champions.

CONVERSION! MO'UNGA! 38-0. This time Mo'unga nails it from the touchline.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! FAINGA'ANUKU! 36-0. Just too easy for the All Blacks. Brilliant long pass by Jordan sees his fellow winger go over with ease.

Mo'unga hits the post with a conversion he really shouldn't be missing.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! NEWELL! 31-0. The maul doesn't work for the All Blacks but they go a bit wider and after a few phases, Newell goes over.

Chance for New Zealand with a lineout deep inside Uruguay's 22.

KICK OFF! 26-0. New Zealand get the second half underway. Hopefully Uruguay can produce more of what they did in the opening 20 minutes, rather than the last 20.

HALF TIME! 26-0. New Zealand have secured the bonus point in the opening 40. It was a magnificent opening 20 minutes by Uruguay, both on defence and attack, but schoolboy errors allowed the All Blacks to get momentum and there has been no stopping them since.

Mo'unga can't find the target this time from a similar angle to the first two tries.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! URUGUAY! 26-0. Roigard goes over from the back of the scrum. Uruguay are falling apart here.

Another scrum on the Uruguay 5m line for New Zealand.

You can't make these errors in any rugby game. Etcheverry kicks a penalty completely dead from outside the All Black 22. Big chance gone.

CONVERSION! MO'UNGA! 21-0. Conversion from in front. New Zealand are starting to purr now.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! JORDAN! 19-0. Superb skill by McKenzie that. Kick through, McKenzie gets there and flicks inside to Jordan just before flying into touch.

After a sublime first 20 minutes, Uruguay are starting to make huge errors. A good crash ball off the scrum but possession lost in the tackle.

Uruguay's scrum just isn't working tonight, it hasn't really worked all tournament. Fortunately they get another one as it came off an All Black hand.

The maul doesn't work for Uruguay so they are forced to go wide. All Blacks infringe at the ruck and another 5m lineout is the result.

Uruguay have a chance to respond. They have the penalty and put it out on the All Blacks 5m line.

CONVERSION! MO'UNGA! 14-0. Same angle as the last try, same result.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! MO'UNGA! 12-0. Close to the exact same try from two minutes ago. Uruguay hardly put a hand on the flyhalf.

Bad mistake by Uruguay. Knock on right under their posts and All Blacks can scrum again from the same place they scored from a few minutes ago.

CONVERSION! MO'UNGA! 7-0. Mo'unga slots it over from the angle.

TRY! NEW ZEALAND! MCKENZIE! 5-0. This time there is no doubt. All Blacks go over straight from the scrum.

All Blacks have a penalty underneath the posts. They opt for the scrum.

McKenzie scores a simple try but there is another poor cleanout by New Zealand. Again no try.

All Blacks are playing like a side with nine changes. But Uruguay have bene superb in the opening 20 minutes.

Oh my word, brilliant rugby by Uruguay as Ardao goes over in the corner but his foot was just out. That could have been one of the tries of the tournament. Superb stuff by Uruguay.

All Blacks go through seven phases but superb defence by Uruguay and they turn it over. Uruguay then counter to inside New Zealand 22.

Roigard goes over for the first try but the TMO comes in and claims there wasn't a clear grounding. Very 50/50 call.

New Zealand make great meters through Will Jordan but a poor cleanout but Jacobson results in a penalty to Uruguay. Etcheverry clears towards halfway.

First scrum of the game goes Uruguay's way on half way. It has been a very impressive performance in the opening few minutes.

Uruguay make a strong start as they go through nine phases towards the New Zealand 22. A little knock costs them possession and the All Blacks can clear.

KICK OFF! 0-0. It is Uruguay that get proceedings underway here in Lyon.

Kick off will be at 21:00 SAST. Join us then for all the live action!

Underestimating Uruguay is something New Zealand will be weary of. And Uruguay will want to put in a big performance with this being their last match of the tournament.

That said, if anyone had forgotten about the All Blacks, they got a timely reminder last Friday. While they were always expected to beat Italy, New Zealand put in a thrilling display of clinical attacking rugby to wipe the floor 96-17 with the Italians.

New Zealand have flown very much under the radar since their opening defeat to France in the opening match. Perhaps they have been under estimated since losing their final warmup clash against South Africa, followed the defeat to France.

Last time out, Uruguay had to comeback from a half time deficit to beat Namibia 35-25.

Uruguay have impressed plenty during their World Cup campaign. They have stood their ground in every game and threatened a huge upset against France a few weeks ago. They then held a solid half time lead against Italy, only to fall away in the second half.

The All Blacks will go top of Pool B tonight if they manage to beat Uruguay, something not many expect will be a problem. France play tomorrow against Italy and will regain top spot should Italy beat the French.
