Welcome to 1 NEWS NOW's live coverage of today's match between the Māori All Blacks and the USA Eagles at Soldier Field Stadium in Chicago.
16 mins: MAB 12 USA 3
TRY! Mitch Karpik dots down the right side after a relentless attacking period from Māori. After several phases down the left side the visitors spread the ball wide into space, Karpik beats the US defender down the right edge and scores the Māori second try.
The kick from Otere Black hits the uprights and is unssucessful.
13 mins: MAB 7 USA 3
THREE! The Eagles are on the score-board after a successful penalty kick from Will Hooley.
10 mins: MAB 7 USA 0
Some poor discipline costs the NZ Māori side, with Ben May penalised for collapsing the scrum. The US have got three back-to-back penalties and now the home team will take a shot at goal from in front of the posts.
4 mins: MAB 7 USA 0
TRY! Regan Ware scores the first try of the match down the left flank! Rob Thompson starts the play with a clever run down the left side before offloading the ball to Brad Weber. The halfback recognises the space down the blindside and he gives the ball to Ware who strolls over to score.
The conversion is successful from out wide by Otere Black.
2 mins: MAB 0 USA 0
KNOCK-ON! Akira Ioane goes on a barnstorming run after a line-out set piece move. He runs about 30m before offloading the ball to Mitch Karpik, but he fumbles the ball just inside the Eagles' 22.
MAB 0 USA 0
KICK-OFF! And we are underway! With Otere Black kicking off deep to the USA side.
12pm: The Maori All Blacks perform another spectacular rendition of the Timatanga haka, with the USA Eagles accepting the challenge and advancing to halfway.
