For what will likely be its last match of this World Cup, the Wallabies ended on a positive note on Sunday, defeating Portugal (34-14).
Like an air of last stand. After two defeats once morest Fiji and Wales, Australia stopped the bleeding by winning once morest Portugal in their fourth group match (34-14), Sunday October 1, in Saint-Etienne. An improved victory which, however, may not be enough for the Wallabies to avoid the first elimination in their history before the final phase of a World Cup. Even if Fiji lose to the Lobos next weekend, they might qualify with the Welsh thanks to the bonus point.
A record which proves that the current 10th nation in the world still has work to do, as it will host the next edition in 2027. As proof, even the Portuguese managed to annoy the Australians by scoring the first try of the match by Pedro Bettencourt (12th, 3-7), before sinking when he received a yellow card. Richard Arnold, David Porecki, Angus Bell in turn found the goal in the first period, then Fraser McReight secured the offensive bonus for his team on one of his first balls (47th, 29-7). In a disjointed end to the match, both teams added one more achievement.
