Wales v Australia | Match Highlights | Autumn Internationals

Commentary

42’

Commentary

YELLOW CARD, WALLABIES, KEREVI. Wales now have a good chance to hit the front for the first time.

41’

Commentary

Wales get the second half-underway.

40’

Half Time

HALF-TIME IN CARDIFF: Wales trail the Wallabies 13-19.

40’

Commentary

Now it's Australia's turn to work their way back into the game after Wales had just wrestled the ascendancy in the last 15 minutes of the first half.

36’

Commentary

Wales are playing with a newfound level of confidence and swagger now.

34’

Commentary

PENALTY, WALES, ANSCOMBE. Wales have now scored 13 unanswered points to get within six of Australia.

31’

Commentary

PENALTY, WALES, ANSCOMBE. And just like that, Wales have reduced Australia's 19-point lead to just nine. This is a good fightback by the hosts.

28’

Commentary

That Wales try came off the back of a few dominant carries by their forwards, an aspect which has been non-existent in the first quarter of the game.

26’

Commentary

CONVERSION, WALES, ANSCOMBE. 7-19

25’

Commentary

TRY, WALES, WAINWRIGHT. 5-19. The hosts hit back after getting possession from a Wallabies knock on.

24’

Commentary

Things are unraveling for Wales at a rapid rate.

23’

Commentary

CONVERSION, WALLABIES, LOLESIO. 0-19.

22’

Commentary

TRY, WALLABIES, FAESSLER. The hooker barges over from the back of a well-organised lineout drive.

20’

Commentary

Wales can't catch a break. After conceding a penalty for sealing off on the ground, the Wallabies work their way to the tryline and get another penalty.

17’

Commentary

CONVERSION, WALLABIES, LOLESIO. This time the flyhalf adds the extra points to extend his team's lead to 12.

16’

Commentary

TRY, WALLABIES, FROST. The Australian lock gallops away from one end of the field to the other to score against the run of play.

14’

Commentary

The conversion is well wide off the target. But the visitors lead by five.

13’

Commentary

TRY, WALLABIES, WRIGHT. In the end, there's only so much defending you can you and Australia pounced the moments there were cracks in the Welsh defence.

12’

Commentary

The Wallabies are chipping away at the Wales defence close to the 22m line. But so far, the hosts have cut them off at the source.

10’

Commentary

Slick handing at pace sees Australia go over the tryline, but Kerevi is held up over the tryline thanks to a superb piece of cover defence by Wales.

8’

Injury

SUBSTITUTION: Injured lock Adam Beard is replaced by Christ Tshiunza in the second row for Wales.

8’

Commentary

Bad news for Wales as Adam Beard is forced to withdraw from the match with what looks to be a knee injury.

8’

Commentary

Wales go to the air with an up and under to exit their own half and the chase is good, but the ball is knocked into touch. Lineout for the Wallabies.

7’

Commentary

Tom Wright cuts through the Wales defensive line, but is then hauled in. The ball goes wide before they knock it on.

2’

Commentary

But as Australia get to the 22m line, there's a little knock on. The first scrum of the game goes to Wales.

1’

Commentary

KICK-OFF! We're underway with the first half here in Cardfiff… The Wallabies retain possession from the kick off and go on attack immediately.

0’

Commentary

The anthems are done and dusted. Kick-off is close. Buckle up, folks.
