WATCH: Marvel at this paper airplane thrown from the stands in the Aviva that lands on the pitch

Look at it go. And go. And go.

While it didn’t exactly match the historic win over New Zealand for drama and spectacle – to be honest, what can? – Ireland’s Canada 52-21 win over Canada did provide enough moments to captivate those in attendance.

Eight tries, eight debuts and nine nervous first-half minutes with the scores tied at 14-14 were all on offer, but it’s clear that Joe Schmidt will have plenty of work to do when he gets back to the training ground this week.

The All Black’s are coming to town this Saturday and there won’t be an empty seat in the Aviva when the back-to-back world champions come looking for revenge.

The atmosphere for New Zealand will undoubtedly be different from Canada though, as seen by this moment of magic that came from the stands at the weekend.

Take a look as one supporter manages to through a paper airplane from stands of the Aviva that make sits way  onto the pitch.
