Gareth at Twickers: This is dreadful. Fifteen people who have never met before are wearing England shirts. Dreadful.

Michael Slavin:, external England like a team who've over thought, over practiced and it's all a little over wrought. Relax into it, play your natural game

"The game was in the balance five minutes ago, and now it's New Zealand's."

"One bit of individual brilliance and one bit of tenacity have undone Wales. It's a very simple try. But Kieran Reed has put the work in."

Jonny May goes off with blood pouring from his head for a stitch or two, Marland Yarde is on as a blood replacement.

Mike Brown and Tusi Pisi square up for a moment after England concede a penalty - James Haskell overly keen to make an impression you suspect as he is pinged for a second time. Pisis to go for goal... and he misses.

Big let-off for England.

How will George Ford cope with the physicality of the Samoans? Well, he just got smashed by the 6ft 7in, 19st 3lb Filo Paulo as the Samoa second row decided not to buy a dummy, and bounced up like nothing happened.

Rather him than me.

That is surely good night, lights out and goodbye to Wales' chances of victory.

Mike Phillips takes a fraction of a second too long over a box-kick and Kieran Read charges down and looks up to find the ball bobbling obligingly over the whitewash for him to flop over and score.

Colin Slade with a beauty of a conversion as well.

"Wales don't need to panic. Ten minutes is plenty of time. They can force a penalty, get a drop goal, and get back within range. What they don't want to do is force passes and knock the ball on, because the All Blacks will just keep the ball."

Brian Moore
Former England hooker on BBC Two

"You've got to give a lot of credit to Beauden Barrett. There's a lot of intuitive skill there. You can't blame Leigh Halfpenny. He didn't get the bounce of the ball."

A first glimpse of the slashing breaks Anthony Watson will surely make for England for the next decade. The 20-year-old Bath winger makes 20m as England shows signs of adventure.

And the momentum swings again.

Beauden Barrett has been looking for that chip all day and finally he gets one right. He gets a good slice of luck as a side order as well as the bounce totally wrong-foots Leigh Halfpenny and gives him a stroll under the posts.

Wales need a converted score for victory, Or three very quick penalties.

Thirteen minutes to hang on.

Richie McCaw come in the side door and Wayne Barnes blows long and hard.

Leigh Halfpenny rifles it straight through the middle.

"It's a lovely run by Dane Coles for the try. The thing is that he runs dead straight. He doesn't drift. He pulls the full-back in, which makes the overlap, which eventually makes the crucial ground."

England go offside in their own 22, should be first blood Samoa.

And Tusi Pusi duly gets the scoreboard ticking over as he pops over a simple penalty.

Ready? This will be physical - how will the comparatively diminutive George Ford handle things? We'll know soon enough as Tusi Pisi gets the game under way.

That is a bitter kick in the teeth for Wales.

George North is knocked unconscious as he attempts to stem an all Black attack down the right. New Zealand stampede on regardless and although Richie McCaw is denied by some last-ditch tackling there is too much space and too many black shirts.

Beauden Barrett's kicks crossfield, finds Conrad Smith who offloads for Jerome Kaino to flop over.

"There's no reason why Wales should not go on to win this game. If they're disciplined, they can do it. It won't be good enough to turn round later on and say: 'We got close.' This is their chance."

Luke Charteris and Justin Tipuric are on with Jake Ball and Dan Lydiate off.
