Eden Park: All Blacks vs Wallabies

Again: Rugby in Eden Park. This time even more interesting than last time, since the All Blacks take on the Wallabies, Australia's national team. That's like Germany vs Netherlands in soccer, or more like Erfurt vs Jena... :-) However, everything is peaceful -- I suppose, that's because the ABs are winning. Totally unexpected, they are down 11-20 at halftime (playing really badly), but come back to take the match 34-27. And not just the match, but also the Bledisloe Cup and the Tri Nations Trophy. Did I mention, that Rugby has lots of weird tournaments and trophies? Anyway, was a nice event with some tension and a happy ending.
