All Blacks survive Wallabies fightback

Australia chased New Zealand to the final whistle but the All Blacks held on for a bonus-point victory to retain the Bledisloe Cup in Sydney on Saturday.

The Kiwis snapped a two-game losing streak with a nail-biting 31-28 win over Australia at Accor Stadium, holding off a second-half charge from the hosts.

Both teams scored four tries apiece on a warm Sydney afternoon as Scott Robertson’s men bounced back from consecutive Rugby Championship defeats against the world champion Springboks in the Republic.
