It was a sombre start to this year's Rugby World Cup for All Blacks fans, with France taking out the tournament opening match 27-13.
The All blacks scored first and were only down one point at half-time, but crumbled in the second half.
It's the first time the All Blacks have been beaten in 32 World Cup pool games.
