Ireland have beaten the All Blacks and nobody can quite believe it

They did it.

God knows how they did it but they did it. So drink it in. Ireland have beaten the All Blacks in Chicago. And this is how it happened. It started with a penalty via the boot of Johnny Sexton. https://twitter.com/daniellexfox/status/794994262857359362 The next score led many to believe that the floodgates were about to open up. https://twitter.com/DrunkRufie/status/794995426999074816 https://twitter.com/autosuggested/status/794995045405433860 https://twitter.com/meabhc/status/794995617697329152 But then Ireland touched down for a try of their very own and proved, at the very least, that they belonged in the game. https://twitter.com/unlaoised/status/794997718255013889 https://twitter.com/Ukilkelly/status/794997948547559426 https://twitter.com/Langer003/status/794997952578199552 Then, boom, a second Irish try reared its beautiful head. https://twitter.com/barros_maximus/status/794999527946207232 https://twitter.com/olearysays/status/794999375651074048 https://twitter.com/WillDowningComm/status/794999369586114566 Penalties were exchanged but then, all of a fucking sudden, Murray broke the New Zealand line and got it down and that's the way the scoreboard stayed until the break.  https://twitter.com/mufc_gary/status/795005872120430592 https://twitter.com/dippydash11/status/795005827132297216 https://twitter.com/jonnydbarrett/status/795005671053950976 https://twitter.com/themainmanmono/status/795008261154082816 https://twitter.com/GavinDuffy/status/795008597960884224 After getting a much-needed breather, it was expected that New Zealand would come out all guns blazing but, in fact, it was none other than Simon Zebo who got the first score of the second half. https://twitter.com/amielouluv/status/795014683141017601 https://twitter.com/Langer003/status/795014445542109184 https://twitter.com/deniese_o/status/795014235138957312 https://twitter.com/Bertfar/status/795014229686386688 Then the tide turned but "tide" wasn't the four-letter word of choice https://twitter.com/MarkLawless717/status/795015291717750785 https://twitter.com/lugave/status/795015400123748354 https://twitter.com/CHealy_10/status/795015292938293248 https://twitter.com/zedsdead23/status/795016233695358976 https://twitter.com/bambi_JD/status/795016445121925121 https://twitter.com/unlaoised/status/795016662785388544 https://twitter.com/ConorPacKelly/status/795019072165605377 https://twitter.com/aliefahey/status/795018317048201216 It became a one-score game. https://twitter.com/FintanMusic/status/795020325926924288 https://twitter.com/alanfergs/status/795020739158089728 https://twitter.com/jburns834/status/795020839645224960 Then Henshaw made the impossible very, very, very possible. https://twitter.com/PadraigNolans/status/795020921757171712 https://twitter.com/PaulDunphy2/status/795022655472762880 https://twitter.com/Rob7111/status/795022722019590144 https://twitter.com/thisisnotmysand/status/795023032565665792 https://twitter.com/ClodaghOox/status/795022787610083328 https://twitter.com/GabbyLogan/status/795022736028471296 80 minutes of absolute war left bodies battered, muscles aching and jerseys blood-caked but they had done it.  Ireland beat the All Blacks.  And nobody could quite believe it.  https://twitter.com/Rachie_h0ward_/status/795023824014213120 https://twitter.com/cmadd88/status/795023824249036800 https://twitter.com/JonnyGreenSport/status/795023824349708289 https://twitter.com/jayhartigan/status/795023825519988736 https://twitter.com/curleynurse/status/795024002091798528 https://twitter.com/skydavidblevins/status/795023998375657480 https://twitter.com/KatieAnnDuffy/status/795024279037476864 https://twitter.com/jamescarville10/status/795024177669541888 https://twitter.com/mkatefitzs/status/795024167120863235 https://twitter.com/ThatBradyDude/status/795024156949680132 https://twitter.com/PepsTikiTaka/status/795024082731495424 Who are the winners of the much-coveted 2016 Wooly Awards?
