Ireland are hoping to resurrect the joy of Dublin and pull off another upset against New Zealand when the two sides meet in the World Cup quarter-final.

Steve Hansen's All Blacks are undefeated in 17 World Cup matches and edged South Africa in their opening group game before demolitions of Canada and Namibia. Their final group game was cancelled due to the threat of Typhoon Hagibis.

Ireland began their own campaign with a resounding win against Scotland, but fell spectacularly unstuck against hosts Japan. However, they since bounced back with second-gear victories against Russia and Samoa.

With both Joe Schmidt and Hansen stepping down after the tournament, it will be the final game in charge for one of the Kiwi-born head coaches.
