Australia snatches a win over Scotland in RWC
In rugby news:
Australia snatched a 35-34 victory over Scotland to reach the semi-finals of the 2015 Rugby World Cup at Twickenham on Sunday.
Scotland's Fin Russel stated that his team played phenomenally but Australia was just to hard to match.
"In the group (stages) they were flying, and going into the game we knew that it would be tough, how hard it was going to be. As you saw on the pitch, they created a lot of opportunities and four or five tries they scored which is amazing in a quarter final. But for us, and credit to our boys, we stuck in there and managed to hold in the whole game and it came down to one kick, two minutes to go."
A penalty from Bernard Foley in the final minute of the match gave Australia the win, six minutes from time to re-take the lead.
Australia will now face Argentina in the last four.

"As difficult as it is to be going out of the World Cup at this stage, I think it was a fantastic Argentinean performance and I think it was a performance from us that the players will learn from. There's a lot of players who have never ever been in a match of that intensity and hopefully that learning experience will offer something in the future."
