REPLACEMENT flyhalf Willie Ripia slotted a late penalty to help New Zealand Maori register a tight 31-28 victory over Ireland in their international rugby match in Rotorua, New Zealand, yesterday.
Ireland flyhalf Jonathan Sexton, who had been flawless in kicking seven penalties and a conversion, had an opportunity to level the match with five minutes remaining but pushed his penalty attempt wide to the right for his only miss of the game. The victory is the latest against international sides for the Maori, who have also beaten England, Argentina, Scotland, Fiji, and the British and Irish Lions since the game went professional.
