FROM BBC SPORT
A late try from Graham Dewes saw Fiji dump Wales out of the World Cup and get a quarter-final against South Africa.
Wales' open style played into Fiji's hands, big hits and strong running leading to tries from Akapusi Qera, Vilimoni Delasau and Kele Leawere.
Alix Popham, Shane Williams, Gareth Thomas and Mark Jones brought Wales back, and Martyn Williams' 73rd-minute interception try looked the clincher.
But the islanders rallied, Dewes bullying over from short range.
It was Fiji's first win in eight games against Wales and sees them advance to their first quarter-final since 1987.
With a record of six wins from 20 games in charge of Wales, coach Gareth Jenkins' position will now come under serious question. |
