Wales finally won a rugby test and snapped an 18-match international losing streak when it held off Japan 31-22 on Saturday. The Welsh looked like they were going to blow it again when their 24-10 lead was cut to 24-22 by Japan with 17 minutes remaining.

In a streak of lows, last week’s 24-19 defeat to Eddie Jones’ Japan is surely the lowest, despite strong competition from this year’s 68-14 pummelling by England, defeats to Italy, Fiji, and let’s not forget the 29-17 World Cup quarter final defeat to Argentina that kicked off this miserable run.
