TOKYO -- Ben Smith and Richie McCaw crossed four minutes apart in the first half Saturday as the All Blacks trounced Japan 54-6 in New Zealands first official test in Japan. Winger Charles Piutau scored his first of two tries for New Zealand before two early penalty kicks by Ayumu Goromaru cut the visitors lead to 7-6, but that was as close as Japan would get. Sam Cane scored the All Blacks second try in the 26th minute to make it 12-6 before Smith and McCaw ran in, allowing Steve Hansens team to take a comfortable 28-6 lead at the break. "It was a very good game for us in a number of ways," Hansen said. "We got up mentally for an opposition that we knew, with the greatest of respect, we were always going to beat." The second half was more of the same with Jeremy Thrush, Frank Halai, Beauden Barrett and Piutau all scoring tries, with Barrett adding two conversions and Dan Carter one. Japan, currently 15th in the world rankings, was forced to play Saturdays match without head coach Eddie Jones who is out indefinitely after suffering a stroke last month. Technical adviser Steve Wisemantel took over in his absence. Crusaders lock Dominic Bird and Blues winger Halai made their All Blacks debut in the match played before a sold-crowd at Prince Chichibu Memorial Ground. World champion New Zealand stretched its winning streak to 11 games and set themselves up nicely for their tour of Europe where they will play matches against France, England and Ireland. Japan will host the 2019 Rugby World Cup and is eager to improve but Saturdays match underlined the vast differences between the Asian nation and an elite team like New Zealand. "The first 20 minutes were very good and we did very well," Wisemantel said. "The next step is to maintain that against that type of team for 50 minutes to keep the pressure on." -------- Japan 6 (Ayumu Goromaru 2 penalties). New Zealand 54 (Charles Piutau 2, Sam Cane, Ben Smith, Richie McCaw, Jeremy Thrush, Frank Halai, Beauden Barrett tries; Dan Carter 5 conversions; Barrett 2 conversions). HT: 6-28.

Daniel Ochefu added 12 points on 5-for-5 shooting for the Wildcats (18-2, 7-1 Big East), who forced 18 turnovers while committing 16. Villanova made 22 of 28 free throws and moved into a tie with first-place Creighton atop the Big East. Markel Starks scored 20 points for the short-handed Hoyas (11-9, 3-6), whose roster underwent two more changes before the game. Georgetown has its longest losing streak since 2011 and has dropped three straight at home for the first time since 2009. The game included 34 turnovers, 41 field goals and 39 fouls. At least it was competitive: The biggest lead was eight points -- and thats only because Georgetown scored the first eight points of the game. After topping off at No. 4 in the Top 25, Villanova has had all it can handle in its last three games. No opponent shot 50 per cent or better against the Wildcats in their first 17 games, but they allowed Creighton to shoot 57 per cent in a loss and Marquette to hit 50 per cent in an overtime win. Georgetown was at 55 per cent at halftime, but the Hoyas went cold late and finished at 44 per cent. Georgetown fell short again on a day of more ups and downs with player moves. Jabril Trawick returned after missing five games with a broken jaw and played 12 minutes. The Hoyas learned shortly before tipoff that senior centre Moses Ayegba had to sit out due to a one-game NCAA suspension.dddddddddddd Ayegbas suspension looked like a bureaucratic mess, even by NCAA standards. It was related to the nine-game suspension he received as a freshman for violating pre-enrolment rules, an infraction that the Hoyas have said was connected to a plane ticket that brought him from Nigeria to the United States years ago -- before Georgetown even started recruiting him. The Hoyas are playing without centre Joshua Smith, who was recently ruled out for the rest of the season due to academic issues. Bradley Hayes, who had played 13 minutes all season, got some crucial playing time in both halves. Villanova led 35-30 at halftime. The Hoyas game-opening 8-0 run was answered immediately by a 9-0 spurt by the Wildcats. Consecutive three-pointers by Villanovas Ryan Arcidiacono created the closest thing to momentum over the first 20 minutes. Starks drove baseline to tie the game at 35, and he gave the Hoyas their first lead of the second half, 41-39, with two free throws with 14:42 to play. From there, it was back-and-forth. Georgetowns Aaron Bowen saluted the crowd after a three-pointer that tied the game at 46, while Ochefu stretched every bit of his frame to make a layup that gave the Wildcats a 61-56 lead. Starks floater cut the deficit to 61-58 with 2:08 to play, but he was called for an offensive foul after making a pass under the basket with 35 seconds remaining. Villanova then made a series of free throws to hold on for the win. ' ' '
