    Having controlled the early exchanges of this second half, Wales have made a few mistakes which have rather punctured the quick pace of the game.

    The hosts are still in charge with a lead of 17-6 but one suspects head coach Warren Gatland - a hard taskmaster - will be expecting more from his side.

  2. Did you know?published at 15:36 Greenwich Mean Time 15 November 2014

    Jamie Roberts, George North, Scott Williams, Rhys Priestland, Mike Phillips, Bradley Davies, Taulupe Faletau and Alun Wyn Jones (on the bench at the moment) are survivors from the side that beat Fiji 66-0 at the 2011 World Cup.

    Don't think we'll see a scoreline quite like that today - but who knows?

    Matthew Evans writes: Watching from Mexico City. Wales need to hold onto the ball in the tackle. Fiji are very dangerous on the counter.

    As was the case in the first half, Wales make a bright start to the second period and camp themselves on the Fijian try line within 90 seconds of the restart.

    Phase after phase of attack comes to nothing, though, as Dan Lydiate is penalised for a double movement just a couple of yards short of the Fiji line.

    The players are back out and the second half is about to start.

    Can Wales pull clear? Or will Fiji claw themselves back into this match?

    There have been mistakes aplenty in Cardiff, but Wales have managed not make theirs with the line begging. That's why Warren Gatland's side are leading 17-6 as the second half starts.

    It was a perfect start for Wales and a great piece of play from Priestland.

    But Wales have been very lucky on a few occasions.

    Fiji have had chances but just haven't got over the line.

    I've thoroughly enjoyed the game. Wales play simple, organised rugby.

    But Fiji have picked up the ball, snapped and gone. They've got Wales and Fiji fans on their feet.

    Ben Williams adds: Liam Williams gives 104 per cent.

  12. Half-timepublished at 15:15 Greenwich Mean Time 15 November 2014

    It has been loose, ragged at times, but Wales will be happy to be leading at the break.

    They have scored three tries courtesy of George North, Alex Cuthbert and a penalty try, but Fiji have demonstrated what a dangerous team they can be.

    Vereniki Goneva and Nikola Matawalu have shown flashes of their considerable threat, while the huge centre Nemani Nadolo has kicked two penalties and missed another two.

    This has not been as wild as the first-half shoot-out with Australia last weekend, but both teams have been trying to play enterprising, attacking rugby and you would expect more tries to follow after the restart.

    That was just what the doctor ordered. Fiji are down to seven and that's a really crucial score for Wales.

  15. Converted penalty try for Walespublished at 15:12 Greenwich Mean Time 15 November 2014

    Wales' decision to kick to the corner pays off as referee Pascal Gauzere awards a penalty try after Fiji bring down a rolling Welsh maul.

    Priestland converts and Wales have a little breathing space with a 17-6 lead.

  16. Sin-bin for Fiji (Ma'afu)published at 15:11 Greenwich Mean Time 15 November 2014

    Undeterred by Fiji's recent period of pressure, Wales are backing themselves here sending kickable penalties to the corner.

    Fiji repel the Welsh attacks - but illegally - as Campese Ma'afu is sent to the sin bin for bringing down the Welsh rolling maul.

  18. Missed penalty for Fiji (Nadolo)published at 15:08 Greenwich Mean Time 15 November 2014

    Fijian pressure is mounting. Leicester's Vereniki Goneva makes a scintillating break from his own half and, in a flash, Fiji find themselves camped by the Welsh line again.

    The visitors waste a good chance to go over in the corner as flanker Masi Matadigo runs instead of passing to those outside him, and Nadolo misses the resultant penalty for Fiji.

    Kieran Neilson writes: Wales would do better with James Hook at fly-half.

    Rhys Priestland has missed two conversions so far, but has played his part in both Welsh tries. I have a feeling this debate is going to run and run...

  20. Penalty for Fiji (Nadolo)published at 15:03 Greenwich Mean Time 15 November 2014

    A first glimpse of Fiji's free-flowing, running rugby as the visitors carry the ball from their own 22 to within 10 yards of the Welsh try line.

    Nadolo kicks another simple penalty with 28 minutes on the clock and Wales are now only four points in front.
