    A final-quarter blitz has helped the All Blacks take down Ireland 26-13 in their opening Grand Slam tour test in Chicago


    Down 10-7 at the break, New Zealand battled back with three tries in the last 20 minutes to earn their third consecutive win over the Irish.

    However, there are injury concerns for brothers Scott and Jordie Barrett, who both left the field in the first half.

    Coach Scott Robertson says it was a game of two halves.
