LONDON (Reuters) - New Zealand were punished for showing "a lack of respect" to Ireland when they lost in Chicago and could be in for another shock in Saturday's rematch at Dublin's Aviva Stadium, according to former Lions wing Luke Fitzgerald.

Joe Schmidt's side delivered one of rugby's biggest shocks of the year by winning 40-29 11 days ago to end the All Blacks' 18-game winning run and become the first team since South Africa in 2004 to score 40 points against them.
