Richie Rees' Commentary
- Former Wales International: 'That sums up the half. Wales had a penalty five meters out and didn't tap the ball. It's a missed opportunity.'
- ** Dewi Lake's Mistake**: 'Wales captain Dewi Lake chose to tap and go but never tapped the ball with his foot before going. It was a costly mistake.'
