International
Rugby Special Wales v New Zealand
This match could well be described as the unofficial championship of the world with Wales, winners of last season's international championship, tackling the mighty All Blacks. History favours New Zealand - they lead 6-3 in matches against the Welsh - who this year have lost Gareth Edwards , Phil Bennett and Gerald Davies. But Wales are still a powerful force in international rugby, and they have the tremendous advantage of the National Stadium crowd willing them to victory.
Cnmmcntary on the whole match from the International Stadium, Cardiff, by ALUN Williams and PETER WEST , with expert analysis from CHRIS REA
