South Africa v Wales LIVE rugby: Result and reaction as Springboks win the series in Cape Town

An Ireland knock-on will bring the first scrum of the evening, and the All Blacks opt to scrum again when Dan Sheehan removes his brake foot too soon and is free-kicked.

Crikey. That’s very out of character for Jordie Barrett at a ground he knows so well, pushing it to the right from pretty much bang in front. Perhaps he hoped for a gust of wind that never quite caught hold of the ball? In any case, three points gone.

Ireland then disrupt the next New Zealand lineout from similar spot, denying them another opportunity to attack.

But the All Blacks are definitely trying to use contestable kicks to gain territory. Jordie Barrett gets up and taps back the latest high hoist, and Bundee Aki infringes two phases later at a luck. The youngest Barrett will dust himself off and kick for goal.

Another kick option from the All Blacks! Their lineout functions nicely but Beauden Barrett goes straight to his boot, unfurling a devilish spiralling up-and-under.

But this time Hansen’s hands are secure, claiming a mark in the shadow of his own posts.

It sounds rather quiet in Wellington, but the noise does lift as the All Blacks counter-attack from near halfway. The two Barretts left in the side combine initially before Beauden lifts a crossfield kick that Mack Hansen knocks on. Ardie Savea is then taken high - penalty to New Zealand and down to the fringes of the Irish 22.

Ireland strike early again! A powerful lineout drive and Josh van der Flier flops over!

Dan Sheehan hits James Ryan, who comes down with uncontested ball. New Zealand attack the back of the Ireland maul, but the Irish eight shimmy their emphasis slightly towards the touchline, taking Sam Whitelock, Brodie Retallick and Akira Ioane out of the counter-shove from the All Blacks.

The trio scramble to get back and deny Ireland but the maul by now has momentum and will not be halted, with van der Flier the buried beneficiary.

Johnny Sexton fails to convert.

But Ireland can attack from a lineout deep in New Zealand territory. They have identified a space at the back of the lineout all series, again Dan Sheehan looping around a feigned maul and sending Bundee Aki up on a charge, Ardie Savea hanging on well to drag him down.

Ireland fail to make much more progress after that and the All Blacks pilfer the ball at the ruck, but Sam Cane had bumped into Josh van der Flier off the ball - penalty to Ireland, which is pushed into the left corner!

James Lowe races down and makes a good tackle inside the New Zealand 22. Aaron Smith can, then, clear directly to touch but opts instead to direct his box kick infield, inviting Ireland to run it back.

Fast start from the Irish! Caelan Doris produces some of his trademark sharp footwork at the line to beat a defender and then a pull-back puts Robbie Henshaw into space. He combines with Peter O’Mahony, but the flanker’s pop on ends up in the hands of Beauden Barrett, retreating and covering well. New Zealand scramble a clearance away.

The third Test has begun!

Plenty of focus on the officials this week - Wayne Barnes takes the whistle, an experienced head for a huge game, though not the most popular figure in New Zealand after the 2007 World Cup quarter-final against France.

Fellow Englishman Tom Foley is the TMO in an all RFU-supplied matchday team of officials.

Ireland to kick-off - here we go!
