- Australia overturned a deficit to beat Fiji 36-22 in their second pool match at the Rugby League World Cup, surviving a scare to claim the 14-point win.
- Australia, the defending champions, secured their place in the semi-finals with one pool match to spare after the victory over Fiji.
Why it matters: Australia, the defending champions, have banked a Rugby League World Cup semi-final berth with one pool match still to play, so the 36-22 comeback over Fiji was more than a close escape. The 14-point win in their second pool fixture moves them into the last four with a group game still in hand.
