As a crowd with60,214 people watch it play.The All Blacks were very good in patches during the first half when they scored four tries but after the break, they started making mistakes. As there coach(Graham Henry)got irritated, he rates the game as only 50%. But the captain(Richie McCaw) didn't seem too frustrated as he said “We got frustrated and we made mistakes, but the Tongans defended well. We did some good things early in the match, it’s just a pity that we didn’t do it for the full 80 minutes.”
