Jordan Achieves a Try-Scoring Record as New Zealand Beats Italy 47-17 in the Nations Championship
- Sky Stadium in Wellington hosted the All Blacks and Italy for a Nations Championship test match, marking the first time the teams have played in the capital.
- New Zealand entered the test following a 34-32 victory over France, while Italy arrived after a 27-10 loss to Japan. Historically, the home side has won all 17 previous meetings against The Azzurri.
- French referee Luc Ramos oversaw the contest in his first time officiating an All Blacks match, with the hosts holding a 14-10 lead at the break.
- Italy's challenge suffered significantly when Italy player Lorenzo Cannone received a red card for foul play in the second half. The hosts capitalized, with All Blacks player Will Jordan scoring multiple tries and All Blacks player Ruben Love successfully converting kicks.
- Betting markets favored the hosts at $1.02 compared to $13.00 for Italy, as the Nations Championship continues its 12-team format pitting Northern and Southern Hemisphere squads against each other every two years.
