Ireland are backing themselves for another win against the All Blacks, should the two sides meet in next year's World Cup.

According to Irish winger Jacob Stockdale, teams no longer fear Steve Hansen's side.

22 year old Stockdale famously scored the only try of the match in Ireland's 16‑9 win over the All Blacks in Dublin earlier this year, spoke about his side's confidence taken from victory over the All Blacks, heading into next year's World Cup in Japan.

The All Blacks are still the bookies' favourites for the World Cup, although Ireland's odds have been shortened considerably considering this year's Dublin win.

The Rugby World Cup takes place in Japan from 20th September to 2nd November 2019.
