Going upstairs for a possible Tongan try but the ref thinks there was an obstruction in the leadup
Daniel Tupou has won the Cazoo Man of the Match award
I owe Talakai an apology. After doing well to assist the try he's only gone and nailed the sideline conversion. Result well and truly beyond doubt now
Daniel Tupou has a hat-trick, reaping the rewards for an extremely strong set from his big men and halves. Siosifa Talakai does well to draw and pass and Tupou, like he's done so many times before, finishes flawlessly
Booooooo! The video ref rules that the ball only just came into contact with the sideline. Tolutau Koula produced the kick chase of the tournament to dive and (almost) fling the ball back into the field of play to a Tongan support player, who found Tuimoala Lolohea inside for the would-be try. Shame it was disallowed
This is the try of the tournament if it stands. Being sent up as a try, confirming it was all above board

Kyle Evans makes a superb tackle on Siosifa Talakai to force the mistake. Evans has certainly won the individual battle between those two so far
Set restart for TON

The Welsh defence forces David Fifita to offload over the sideline
Wales will have first use of the ball
Second half about to get underway
Tuimoala Lolohea makes no mistake. Wales will feel very unlucky to head into the sheds 10 points in the hole
Tonga have got their act together in the last 3 or so minutes of the first half, with Keaon Koloamatangi running a good line straight through a hole in the Welsh defensive line past Josh Ralph.
Tuimoala Lolohea converts the try and extends the lead
Try is confirmed, with big David Fifita making a run close to the line that NRL watchers will be very familiar with. Barring something unexpected, Tonga will have the lead at half time
Going upstairs for a possible Tonga try, Kasey Badger believes that David Fifita got the ball to the line
Challenge unsuccessful, Tonga will go on the attack and try to take the lead
Connor Davies knocks on in the play the ball but Wales are challenging
A promising passage of play for Tonga starts with an offload for Lolohea who breaks the line, gets it to Tesi Niu, who offloads again but to a player on the other team. Wales survive as there is a break in play
Tonga scramble to get a kick in on the last and Kyle Evans makes a great leaping catch

Caleb Aekins knocks on into Ollie Olds, who is standing in an offside possession. Tonga with an opportunity to even things up
Matty Fozard converts the try and Wales have an unlikely 6-0 lead.
Kyle Evans has scored for Wales against the run of play and someone has forgotten to tell these Welshmen the script! Siosifa Talakai coughs the ball up and Josh Ralph is able to find his winger in support, Evans getting away from one defender before touching down under the posts. What an unpredictable start
Ollie Olds' pass is way over the head of his winger and Tonga again repel the Welsh attack
Anthony Walker is taken high by Siosiua Taukeiaho and Wales will take the tap in search of a try. Through the first 15 minutes you certainly wouldn't know that one of these sides was a heavy favourite pre-match
Tonga kick on tackle 4 and the ball just beats Sione Katoa over the dead ball line. 7 tackle set for the Welsh coming up
