38 3 - 6

Jackson nails a superb penalty from out wide - fantastic nudge

62 6 - 6

Contepomi slots the penalty and we're all square. This looks like it is heading for an epic finish

64

That is quite unbelievable. Lucas Amorosino dances his way through most of the Scotland defence and crosses he line - awful tackling from Scotland but a clinical finish nonetheless

65 6 - 9

Jackson lines up the posts and slots a fantastic drop-goal from about 30 metres out - great nudge

71 6 - 12

Scotland have the penalty advantage - Dan Parks nails the drop-goal..just

72 11 - 12

Amorosino dances down the touchline - dodging tacklers- and crosses the line for what could prove to be a monumental try

73 13 - 12

Contepomi adds the all important extras - one point in it - this is so tense
