All Blacks Get Record Win Against USA

The All Blacks have secured a record 104-14 win against the USA in Washington. The writing was on the wall for USA after flanker Luke Jacobson scored the All Black's first try after only 29 seconds of the match, and further tries resulted in a 59-7 halftime lead. The Eagles did however manage to score their first try ever against the All Blacks when halfback Nate Augspurger did so late in the first half.
