Wales Matchwinner Gareth Anscombe . . . Eight Successful Kicks, Two Struck Posts, One Missed Record!

Gareth Anscombe picked up the Player of the Match award for his match-winning performance off the bench for Wales in Lyon, but he missed out on a Welsh World Cup record. Having struck the post with his first kick of the night after replacing the injured Dan Biggar early on in the first half, he then put together a series of eight successive kicks that condemned Australia to a record defeat against Wales.
