Ireland victory over All Blacks dedicated to Axel Foley’s memory
The spirit of Anthony Foley was very evident before and after Ireland’s defeat of the mighty All-Blacks — ending 111 years of pain.
The Munster players formed a figure eight when facing New Zealand’s Haka before kick-off, in tribute to Foley’s playing number, and promptly channelled the indefatigable former Ireland captain. The poignant memorial set the tone for an unforgettable Irish performance in Chicago resulting in the landmark 40-29 win.
