#rwc2019 — Public Fediverse posts

Sloppy scrummaging and Scotland pick up the penalty with four minutes left. Blue lineout on the Japan 22. Intensity intensifies. #rwc2019 #JPNvSCO

Emotions high, tempers boiling over. A turnover leads to some shoving and grabbing, O'Keefe cautions blue. No cards. Yet. Maintain composure and score the points lads. #rwc2019 #JPNvSCO

Everyone looks breathless. A quick respite with 15 minutes to play, it is nail bitingly close and there's no clear outcome here. Scotland need to keep the ball in hand, kicking is not going to help in this last quarter. If you give Japan the ball they magically appear on your 22. Carry that weight Scotland. #rwc2019 #JPNvSCO

Twenty minutes left and I"m pretty sure both benches are empty. Anyone's game. Fantastic match to close out the pool games. Whatever the result this is one of the best matches of the meet.

#rwc2019 #JPNvSCO #rugby

Nakajima ploughing the field with his carries in the unending Japanese phases. Inching toward the tryline. Deafening support. Scotland desperate to defend without giving up the penalty. #rwc2019 #JPNvSCO

Scotland taking some tips from Japan and playing fast, wide ball with movement and hijinks all over. Cracking stuff, big comeback in the cards. #rwc2019 #JPNvSCO

Japan making some changes. Yamanaka on for Tupou at fullback

More surprisingly Tanaka is on for Nagari at scrum-half.

#rwc2019 #JPNvSCO

So far we are seeing #Japan dominant in possession, offload, pace, space... Passion is high but the precision, the recycling, the work rate, can't fault it. #Scotland need to find some gaps in the armour to deny Japan possession. #rwc2019 #JPNvSCO

Half-time and we've seen a blistering first 40, it would be easy to point to the stats and make some judgements, but let's not forget #Scotland's second half at Twickers this year.

Whichever way the next half goes, you can be sure you'll be on the edge of your seat.

Oh boy. Another failed scrum and O'Keefe gives #Japan the penalty this time. #Scotland not happy, asking questions and this following a 50/50 call on a knock-on from Russell. #rwc2019 #JPNvSCO

We can't seem to get the scrum right tonight, O'Keefe gives the free kick so #Japan call for another scrum... #rwc2019 #jpnvsco

Matsushima unafraid to go into contact and takes a massive couple of knocks, he's up but I can't believe that's not a HIA. Next up is TMO review of some head contact between Gray and Horie. Can't believe THAT's not HIA either. Everybody eager to play on. #rwc2019 #JPNvSCO

Penalty Japan as Scotland get overly penalised for not wrapping a tackle. Little bit harsh IMO. Wind is in the face of Tamura but Japan wants a few points here to settle the nerves so he lines up the kick. Unfortunately, not enough legs on the ball. #JPNvSCO #JPNvsSCO #rwc2019

Cracking first ten minutes with plenty of action. #Japan showing every sign they are going to throw their bodies on the line tonight.

#rwc2019 #rugby #ラグビー

Pool A is up for grabs, the build up has been ridiculous, the tension is palpable and we couldn't ask for a more exciting finish to the pool phase of the tournament.

The home crowd is on fire, huge noise which is hushed for a minute's silence to pay respect to the victims of #hagibis

Here come the anthems, and voices are raised once again. Everything on the line for both teams tonight. It's going to be emotional.

Please keep all scores in CW in case people are planning on watching replay later.

This is the big one! Possibly one of Scotland's biggest games in quite some time. McInally has been relegated to the bench, and both back rows are going to be interesting to watch.

This is of course Japan's biggest game too, this game can secure passage to the knockout phase for the first time.

Settle in for a dust-up!

Rhys Carre pulling his weight and then some all match. One minute to go and it's a blue scrum on the Uruguay five metre. Los Teros happy to play on and find a few more points before they fly home. #rwc2019 #WALvURU

Eight minutes to go and every single #Welsh #Dragon is looking to lock up the bonus point. Leigh Halfpenny absolutely on form under the high ball. One more try in the closing minutes will do it. #rwc2019 #WALvURU

Uruguay seem to be very choosy on when to attack the breakdown - which is a shame because when they do they are very good at it. Jackals abound and a few more stolen balls would do a lot to mess with Wales' attack. #rwc2019 #WALvURU

A despondent Samoa is walked back but the front row pops and Jaco calls another penalty, and it's another scrum. #rwc2019 #JPNvSAM

#Japan can smell the bonus point. Samoa know they're going home, but Japan want that bonus point to cement their place in the pool. They are already attacking the line. #rwc2019 #JPNvSAM It's a Japan lineout on the Samoa 5 metre. Crowd is going nuts.

Samoa is throwing their physicality at a well-organised Japan. Still an open game, it's flowing, it's fast, it's furious. #rwc2019 #JPNvSAM #ラグビー

#rwc2019 #JPNvSAM it was a scrappy first half with no clear leader, but Jpana are out swinging this second half, clearly pulling to gether a response to the Samoa physicality. It's still penalty central though.

Samoa are back to fifteen and we're still squabbling over breakdowns. Samoa seems to have the edge in the scrum. Turnovers aplenty in this half, still anyone's game. #rwc2019 #JPNvSAM

Leitch is back as a starter for #Japan today, and a win today would leave us looking forward to a cracking final pool match between Japan and Scotland to see who advances to the knockout stage. Everthing on the line for Japan today.

High tackle on God 10 metres out. Penalty advantage. Chip kick to see why not. Parkes catches it in his broken hand and TRY WALES. Biggar converts. Amazing first 15 minutes here. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #rwc2019 #rugby #AUSvWAL
