Fullback Beauden Barrett did something no other All Black has managed to do on the world's biggest stage last night, in his side's 46-14 thrashing of Ireland.
According to stats provider Opta, Barrett's 21 carries broke a record in the black jersey at the World Cup.
Only All Blacks greats
John Kirwan and Buck Shelford had reached the 20 carries mark, both doing it against Italy in 1987.
Barrett finished the game with 69 carry metres as well as a try and a try assist. He also made three clean breaks, second-most of the game behind winger Sevu Reece.
