In a breathtaking upset at Soldier Field, Ireland outscored the New Zealanders by five tries to four to seal their first win over the Kiwis in the 29th meeting between the two nations dating to 1905.
The Irish were forced to hold off a ferocious New Zealand fightback in the second half, which saw the All Blacks recover from a 30-8 deficit to go within four points at 33-29.
But with the majority of fans in a 62,300 sellout crowd roaring them on, Ireland scored a fifth and final try through blockbusting center Robbie Henshaw, converted by replacement fly-half Joey Carbery, to clinch a famous victory.
It was New Zealand’s first defeat since their loss to Australia in August 2015.
Only last month, the All Blacks had set a new world record for consecutive victories with their 18th win in a row.
