Wales survive huge scare against Japan

Replacement flyhalf Sam Davies's last-gasp drop goal gave Wales a 33-30 win over a feisty Japan side in a thrilling test at the Principality Stadium on Saturday.

Wales were given a big fright when replacement back Amanaki Lotoahea raced down the right wing for a try which flyhalf Yu Tamura converted to put the Cherry Blossoms level with five minutes remaining.

Leigh Halfpenny scored 15 points for Wales but they were never allowed a breather by a Japan side who hit back every time the hosts looked like pulling away.

Flanker Dan Lydiate, centre Jamie Roberts and captain Sam Warburton went over for Wales while Japan's first two tries were scored by wingers Akihito Yamada and Kenki Fukuoka.
