- Source: History of rugby union matches between Ireland and New Zealand
New Zealand (the All Blacks) first played against Ireland in 1905, during the 1905–1906 All Blacks tour of Europe and North America, beating Ireland 15–0 at Lansdowne Road, Dublin. The two teams have played 38 test matches, with New Zealand winning 32, Ireland winning 5, and 1 match drawn.
During the 2012 Irish Tour of New Zealand, New Zealand won all three tests, scoring 124 points to Ireland's 29. This tour also saw New Zealand post the biggest winning margin against Ireland in their history, with a score of 60–0 on 23 June 2012.
On 24 November 2013, New Zealand were trailing 17–22 against Ireland in the final minute of the match, and on the verge of their first ever loss to Ireland, the Irish gave up a penalty with under 30 seconds remaining, which ultimately led to New Zealand working their way up the field, ending in a try to tie the scoring. The try was converted after the second attempt, giving New Zealand a 24–22 victory and a complete perfect 2013 season.
Despite New Zealand's dominance until 2016, the ten matches between 2016 and 2024 were shared five each in tightly contested matches between teams at the top of the world rankings. Ireland ended a 111–year wait for a victory at Soldier Field in Chicago with a 40–29 win on 5 November 2016. On 17 November 2018, Ireland won 16–9 at the Aviva Stadium, Dublin, their first home win against the New Zealand. In the 2022 Irish Tour of New Zealand, Ireland scored their first victory against the All Blacks in New Zealand on 9 July 2022. The following week Ireland became just the fifth touring side to achieve a series win in New Zealand, winning 32–22 in Wellington for a 2–1 series victory, and consecutive victories against New Zealand for the first time. The two teams have met each other in the knockout stages of the Rugby World Cup twice with New Zealand winning on both occasions, 46–14 in 2019 and 28–24 in 2023. The most recent meeting between the two teams was on 8 November 2024, which saw the All Blacks beat Ireland 23–13 at the Aviva Stadium, Dublin and take the Raeburn Shield, the hypothetical 'lineal' world championship in men's international rugby.
