A stirring Wallabies fightback hasn’t been enough, with Wales holding on to win their dramatic Rugby World Cup pool game 29-25 in Tokyo.
Trailing by 18 points early in Sunday’s second half, the Australians closed within a point entering the last 10 minutes, but couldn’t score again in a tension-filled finish.
The result means Australia are likely to end up second in group D and, if other results fall as expected, they’ll face a daunting quarter-final against England.
