Hello and welcome to LIVE coverage from the much anticipated clash between New Zealand and France at Eden Park in Auckland

So that is the end of that match and New Zealand in the end have won that one comfortably. New Zealand will win Pool A now, with France going through second assuming they don't lose to Tonga next Saturday

Sonny Bill is penalised for not releasing the ball after he is brought down and although France kick for the lineout, there isn't enough time left on the clock and that'll be the end of the match

Carter fails to add the conversion this time, not quite being able to pull his kick from the right wing back round in order to curl it inside the left upright

TRY NEW ZEALAND! 37-17! Slade breaks after a great pass from Ali Williams. He gets caught but Sonny Bill is on the opposite wing, the left wing. He is screaming for it and eventually gets it before running in for his third try of this World Cup

CONVERSION FRANCE! 32-17! Yachvilli adds the extras and France will come out of this match looking a little more respectable now, even if that try was controversial

TRY FRANCE! 32-15! Bizarre scenes as Rolland gives the try to France despite seemingly having already told them they couldn't take the penalty that quickly. He's given it though ...

Woodcock is penalised for a third time in a row for not binding correctly. France go to take the penalty quickly but Rolland says he hasn't given time on yet. Francois Trinh-Duc collides with Sonny Bill Williams's arm as he dives over the line and is yet to get up ...

France force their way over the line but the referee, who is right there, decides the ball has been held up. Still France will get the scrum five through

Harinorduquay ... Dusautoir ... Nonu is caught offside and it will be a French penalty ...

France look to run the ball from their own half through Clerc but New Zealand turn the ball over as Thompson goes down injured. He's clearly in some trouble. Israel Dagg is also in trouble and is hobbling back into position as France grab the ball once again

Clerc attempts to set off along the wing but the pass out to him was clearly forward and France are called back

DROP GOAL NEW ZEALAND! 32-10! Carter lands just his fourth drop goal in 83 Tests as he takes his opportunity and drills the ball right in between the posts

New Zealand are penalised at the lineout for failing to throw the ball straight as Colin Slade comes on for Richard Kahui, who appears to be nursing a bit of an injury

Woodcock is penalised for having a hand on the ground in the scrum and France clear from their own half for a Kiwi lineout just over 10m inside their own half

Servat running in Kaino ... Dusautoir and Harinorduquay ... Nallet ... Kaino makes a huge tackle and he takes out Dusautoir, who spills the ball forward

Andy Ellis has come on for Weepu while Andrew Hore replaces Mealamu as the All Blacks start to make changes. Ali Williams is on for Whitelock as well for NZ

CONVERSION FRANCE! 29-10! Yachvilli does well to thump the ball through the posts from the right wing and is that enough to lift France to some sort of attempted comeback?

TRY FRANCE! 29-8! Mermoz reads the ball beautifully as he intercepts a Carter pass (meant for Whitelock) and runs away unchallenged for a try! Great opportunistic try from the French

Dimitri Szarzewski is replaced by Willam Servat as France look to make some changes to their scrum, which has been comprehensively overpowered thoughout this match

Richard Kahui fails to release the ball and France finally escape with the chance to clear their line at last ...
