Earls: We’ve turned a corner

Ireland utility back Keith Earls insists his side had the belief to beat New Zealand, and revealed the deep disappointment within the Irish camp following Saturday’s 38-18 defeat at the Aviva Stadium.

“We had belief that we could beat them (New Zealand). When we went in at half-time, we still believed even though we had just given a score away…we opened them up a couple of times…it’s disappointing to fall short,” said the Munster winger cum centre.
