14 3 - 0

Halfpenny - penalty goal

15 8 - 0

James Hook counter-attacks from deep inside the Welsh half, Leigh Halfpenny releases Owen Williams who weaves through tackles to score underneath the posts

16 10 - 0

Leigh Halfpenny converts almost as an afterthought

24 15 - 0

James Hook against starts the attack, setting George North free to cut through the midfield. From the ruck Hook spins it to Ashley Beck who dives over in the corner

25 17 - 0

The first conversion was easy, this one was from the touchline

33 17 - 5

Tonga rewarded for possession with an angled run from Will Helu who breezes through challenges to score underneath the posts

34 17 - 7

Simple kick cuts Wales' lead to ten points

47

Hallam Amos goes over on the touchline but the TMO rules he was bundled into touch before getting the ball down

69

George Nort bulldozes over from close range but the TMO decides on review that Luke Charteris obstructed play. Boos all round

80

And mercifully that is that. A decent first-half but an utterly forgettable second one.
