The biggest cheer of the night for this moment of brilliance.

The story of the Rugby World Cup so far seems to be smaller countries really putting it up to the bigger nations.

The tiny African nation trailed by 34-6 at the break in their clash with the All-Blacks, but they got the loudest cheer of the night when they handed off a few of the biggest names in the world to score a wonderful try early in the second half.
