Try-line stand gives Wallabies memorable win

A superb goal-line stand by Australia's defence during the second half cemented victory over Wales at Twickenham and set up a quarterfinal match-up with Scotland at HQ next weekend

Match Commentary

81'FULL TIME ANALYSIS

ESPN's Sam Bruce had this to say:

"The Wallabies have produced one of the gutsiest wins in their proud history to set up a quarter-final date with Scotland next Sunday. Just who is available to play that game remains to be seen after a brutal victory over Wales at Twickenham on Saturday night. It wasn't the prettiest of victories but it will likely taste all the sweeter after they were forced to defend their own line with both Will Genia and Dean Mumm in the sin-bin. The Welsh suffered a bit of white-line fever during that period while Toby Faletau knocked on over the line before George North was held up. But it was the Wallabies' ability to scramble that saw them through, a brilliant tackle and turnover from Adam Ashley-Cooper eventually seeing them clear their line. Two Bernard Foley penalties were all they needed in the second half as they turned a 9-6 half-time lead into a memorable 15-6 victory."
