Everything NZ Maori touch turns to tries as a great kick ahead by Marty McKenzie pops up beautifully for Ngatai and misses the Japanese defender to put the centre away and untouched

Excellent play by NZ Maori and Robinson to set up Nehe Milner-Skudder

Finally Japan get reward for phase play and they didn't make too many mistakes. Excellent work by the entire side and a great break by Ono to set up Mafi

The referee has just had a chat to both sides regarding disciplineand a collapsed maul penalty to NZ Maori has been reversed. Line out for Japan 7m out

Scrum penalty for Japan and they take it quickly. The tap & go earns them a few meters but a missed pass gifts the NZ Maori a turnover and West sends the ball to James Lowe deep in his 22. He shakes 2 defenders and runs almost the length of the field to pop the ball to West in support who scores

Japan earn a free kick after the NZ Maori had too many numbers in the line out. They set up a scrum just inside the 22

Japan have come out fighting in the 2nd half and earn a penalty that will allow them to set up a good attacking line out 20m out

The sides are back out and Japan will be kicking themselves after some poor hands and rucking cost them tries
Counter attacking the mistakes
Oh dear
