Irelands class of 2016 stamped their names into the history books as Joe Schmidts side dispatched New Zealand 40-29 in Chicago for their first win over the All Blacks in 111 years of trying.Three days after the Chicago Cubs ended a 108-year drought to land baseballs World Series, Ireland lit up Soldier Field with their maiden win over the All Blacks at the 29th attempt.New Zealands record-breaking winning run was halted at 18 Tests in the Windy City, with Robbie Henshaw powering home for Irelands fifth and decisive try. The last time the Leinster centre Henshaw was at Soldier Field he was dancing to superstar DJ Tiestos tunes - this time he inked his name into Irelands annals.Jordi Murphy, CJ Stander, Conor Murray, Simon Zebo and Henshaw all crossed for Ireland, who had led 30-8 on 46 minutes before New Zealand fired back into the contest.The All Blacks cut the deficit to 33-29, but, unlike in 2013 when Ireland surrendered a 22-7 lead in a 24-22 defeat, this time Schmidts men held on.George Moala, TJ Perenara, Ben Smith and debutant Scott Barrett all bagged tries for New Zealand, but Steve Hansens back-to-back world champions were finally defeated - for the first time since August 2015.?Some five million people flocked to the Cubs victory parade on Friday, and now the scores of Irish fans in town are fully able to join the party.Ireland drew first blood thanks to Johnny Sextons first-minute penalty, only for Moala to register a hugely controversial try on video review, with officials ignoring Kieran Reads clear high tackle on Stander.New Zealand led 5-3 owing to Beauden Barretts missed conversion, but were quickly reduced to 14 men for 10 minutes. Prop Joe Moody eventually was sent to the sin-bin for dangerously upending Henshaw at a ruck.Ireland punted the penalty to the corner, and drove flanker Murphy home. Sextons touchline conversion wrestled Ireland a 10-5 lead in the 11th minute. Ireland quickly doubled their try count, taking full advantage of another high tackle. Sextons peerless line punt to the corner set up another five-metre lineout. Rob Kearney cut the line tidily in the 13 channel and Stander powered home for his sides second score.Beauden Barretts penalty left Ireland leading 15-8 after 20 minutes. Rob Kearney soared above Ben Smith to the restart after the penalty, and from that platform Ireland bagged further points. Sexton slotted his second penalty, to leave Ireland leading 18-8.Ireland then lost try-scorer Murphy to a suspected serious knee injury, the Leinster star carted off on a stretcher after twisting his boot into the turf. Ireland had entirely bossed possession and territory in a hugely-impressive opening half-hour, and Murray scampered through for the third try. The Ireland nine had pilfered a bouncing ball after Sextons bomb, then sold Aaron Smith a cute dummy around the fringes, to romp over the whitewash. Sextons conversion put Ireland 25-8 to the good.They held that lead until the break. Moody was lucky to escape with just a penalty for a high shot on Kearney after the restart, especially given his first-half yellow card. Ireland punished the error once more, though, with Zebo flying into the left corner after another fine driven lineout. Sextons delayed flat pass gifted Munster wing Zebo a walk-in, further stunning the All Blacks. The Leinster playmaker missed the touchline conversion, but Ireland still led 30-8.New Zealand had already hooked stand-in lock Jerome Kaino for rookie Scott Barrett, and Aaron Smith for TJ Perenara. And it was Perenara who raced in for New Zealands second score, a try owing everything to hooker Dane Coles superlative offload. Beauden Barretts conversion cut Irelands lead to 30-15. No sooner had New Zealand shifted Ben Smith to the right wing, though, than he dotted down acrobatically in the corner. Beauden Barrett slotted the touchline conversion, with Irelands lead down to 30-22.Owen Franks obstruction gifted Ireland a kickable penalty from the restart, but with Sexton receiving treatment for cramp, up stepped scrum-half Murray to the tee. The Munster star slotted the three points with ease, edging Irelands lead to 33-22. Sexton was then forced out through potential injury, leaving 20-year-old rookie Joey Carbery to make one of the highest-pressure debuts.Scott Barrett marked his own debut with New Zealands fourth try, wrong-footing Kearney, with his brother Beauden converting to cut Irelands deficit to just four points. Ireland still led 33-29 with 15 minutes to play, but the omens amid the All Blacks recovery only continued to grow. Try-scorer Moala slumped off with 10 minutes to play with a serious-looking shoulder problem, leaving New Zealand forced into a total re-jig. Hooker Codie Taylor, as the last replacement available, slotted in at blindside, with flanker Ardie Savea moving out to the wing.Zebo cut loose and then punted deep, Ireland forcing Julian Savea to touch down for a five-metre scrum. From the scrum Henshaw powered home for Irelands fifth try, converted by Carbery. That left Ireland leading 40-29 with three minutes to play. Carbery missed a late penalty shot, but, in a week already dripping with sporting history, Ireland still hung on to add their own twang to the tale. Eric Paschall Jersey .

The 17-year-old native of Marystown, N.L., pulled out of Skate Canada International last month in Saint John, N.B., with the same problem. Tennessees ability to conjure up comebacks caught the attention of Alabama coach Nick Saban.With the No. 1 Crimson Tide and No. 9 Volunteers meeting at 3:30 p.m. ET Saturday (CBS) at Knoxvilles Neyland Stadium, Saban this week emphasized to his players the need to play a full 60 minutes.We cant relax in games, we cant have lapses in the game, Saban said. We always talk about no scoreboard, keep playing. When you relax, you let the momentum of the game change, and thats hard to get back.And the way people score points now, there have been numerous games where people were ahead by 21 points and end up losing the game. I think for everybody on the team to understand that, whether you play on special teams, offense or defense, is really important.The Vols (5-1, 2-1 Southeastern Conference) scored three touchdowns over the final eight minutes of the fourth quarter last week to send their game at Texas A&M into overtime. Tennessees seventh turnover of the game in the second overtime session resulted in a 45-38 loss.Earlier this season, the Volunteers came from 17-7 down at Georgia to win 34-31 on a Hail Mary as time ran out, overcame a 21-0 second-quarter deficit to beat Florida 38-28, erased a 14-0 deficit to top Virginia Tech 45-24, and overcame a 13-3 halftime deficit against Appalachian State to win 20-13 in overtime by recovering a fumble in the end zone.This game is one of the great rivalries in the South.Though in different divisions of the SEC -- Alabama in the West, Tennessee in the East -- they play each other every year, and the Tide (6-0, 3-0) has won the last nine meetings.This game is a really big rivalry game and a special one for a lot of people in our state, our supporters and our fans, Saban said. Its obviously a big game for our players as well, and its very challenging to play this game on the road as it always is because theres always a lot of energy and enthusiasm.Tennessee, I think, has an outstanding team.But one that is now in a precarious position in its division race.The loss to the Aggies did more than just take something out of the aura of invinciibility that the Vols created with their comebacks.ddddddddddddIt also pinned them with their first conference defeat. With Florida also sitting at one loss and its game with LSU in jeopardy following a postponement, a second conference loss could put the Vols behind the Gators in the final standings and knock them out of the conference title game.Turnovers were a huge factor in the loss to the Aggies. The Vols lost five fumbles and quarterback Joshua Dobbs was intercepted twice. Probably more than anything else, that is what irked Tennessee coach Butch Jones.I have been very outspoken about it, Jones said, and everyone in our program understands that you cant turn the football over.Other than that, Dobbs played a superb game, completing 28 of 47 passes for 398 yards and a touchdown and rushing for a net 57 yards despite losing 29 yards on four sacks.With running back Jalen Hurd out due to a lower extremity injury, Alvin Kamara picked up the slack with 127 yards rushing. Hurd is expected back for the Alabama game.Two players who definitely wont be available for Tennessee are defensive tackle Danny OBrien and linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin. OBrien sustained a head injury in the loss to Texas A&M, and he subsequently was dismissed from the team for a rules violation.Reeves-Maybin also is out with a shoulder injury that could require surgery.He is still looking at different options for what he wants to pursue, Jones said regarding a possible operation. He has all the time he needs to make that decision. I think he has earned that right.That is not good with the Vols facing a Tide offense featuring freshman quarterback Jalen Hurts, who is averaging more than 256 yards a game in total offense, and sophomore running back Damien Harris, who has three 100-yard rushing games this season.I think this is the best Alabama team we have faced since we have been here, Jones said. Not to take anything away from other teams. They have all been very talented. ' ' '
