New Zealand got back to winning ways as they romped to a record 104-14 victory over the United States in Washington on Saturday in a lopsided test match in which the Eagles at least secured their first-ever try against the All Blacks.

New Zealand, who had not played in the U.S. since 2016, totally dominated in their first outing since a 10-match winning streak was snapped by South Africa in the final game of the Rugby Championship.

"And the reality is I think they were a little shell-shocked through the first five minutes and it took them a while to actually figure out that they could play against us." Straight from the kickoff the ball got shifted wide and George Bridge got away down the wing and fed Finlay Christie, who found flanker Luke Jacobson on the inside and he ran away to score in the corner 28 seconds into the match.The Eagles, who before Saturday's match had faced the All Blacks three times in test rugby, were totally outplayed but did make history as they recorded the team's first-ever try against the most successful team in international rugby.

The All Blacks had their attack firing but were ultimately unable to eclipse their record test victory, which was set at the 1995 World Cup in South Africa when they beat Japan 145-17.
