Wales end 73-year wait with historic 35-28 victory over New Zealand

Wales ended a 73-year wait by defeating New Zealand 35-28 in a Nations Championship match at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, their first victory over the All Blacks since 1953. Wales scored a historic five tries — from Tomos Williams, Dewi Lake, Archie Griffin, Eddie James, and Louis Rees-Zammit, with Sam Costelow converting all five — and led by 14 points on three separate occasions. New Zealand, who made eight changes from their previous lineup, fought back to level at 21-21 through tries from Cortez Ratima, Wallace Sititi, and Fehi Fineanganofo, but Wales' defensive resolve ultimately sealed the victory in front of a crowd of 55,152.
