There have been some great matches so far in the Rugby World Cup, but none of those matches can be compared to the quarter-final between New Zealand and Ireland on October 19th. Many consider this to be the best two nations in the entire Rugby World Cup, and now they will play against one another already in the quarter-final.

The Rugby World rankings were updated on October 7th, and due to their loss against Japan, Ireland suddenly dropped a few places down. But, at the top of the ranking sheet, we find New Zealand, in front of England, Wales, and Ireland. However, there is little doubt that Ireland deserves a spot higher up. But, somehow they lost against Japan, and now they got to a much tougher quarter-final than they had expected before the tournament. Can the Irish heroes beat the New Zealand squad? This will be an awesome match, so make sure to watch it online from the first minute of the game. But, how and where can you stream New Zealand vs Ireland online?
