One suspects the All Blacks would not have been singing Ireland's Call following their first ever defeat to Ireland last month. 

In this video New Zealand players Beauden Barrett and Israel Dagg sing a rendition of Ireland's rugby anthem in a pub in Germany on Monday night.

After beating France in their final test of the year, some of the All Blacks had a night out in Nuremberg.

The rendition of Ireland's Call was posted on social media by Irishman Alan Boyle.

"One of the most amazing things I've ever been a part of." Boyle wrote. "Singing Ireland's Call with some of the All Blacks that Ireland got their first ever victory over just 3 weeks ago. So much respect shown. A group of complete gentlemen. I'll never forget it."

Last month Ireland completed a historic 40-29 win over the All Blacks in Chicago - the first win against New Zealand in 111 years. 

The All Blacks reasserted their superiority as the world’s best rugby team later in November with a controversial 9-21 victory over Ireland during which the All Blacks were incredibly lucky to get away with just two yellow cards.
