The All Blacks have a fine record in France and most notably in Paris, but it doesn't always go well. New Zealand have won 17 of 24 tests in France and nine of 11 in Paris, but these three games bucked the trend. 2002: France 20, New Zealand 20; Stade de France - Paris. The All Blacks had just been pipped by England at Twickenham, while France had thumped South Africa 30 - 10 in Marseille where Francois Gelez kicked 20 points. This is the closest the All Blacks have come to defeat in five tests at the Stade de France.
