A female fan who claims was hit by a ball during the All Blacks' historic loss to Ireland in Dublin last November has taken a personal injury claim against the Ireland Rugby Football Union.

The woman lodged a legal action claim against the governing body and the company that operates the Aviva Stadium in Dublin, New Stadium DIC.

It is understood that the ball was kicked into the crowd by a player, however, it is unclear whether or not an All Black was involved.
