Twist in the Tale by Peter Cornwell.

Englands victory over Austrlia in 2000. In their first game in five months, England achieved what many regarded as the impossible, a victory over the World Champions Australia. From the outset England pressurised Australia with some fast attacking rugby. Within the first quarter of an hour England were rewarded with two penalties and took a 6 - 0 lead. Australia quickly levelled the score through the boot of Matt Burke. Penalties were exchanged again before Griffin was sin binned just before half time, which England took full advantage of and nosed in fron 12 - 9 through Johnny Wilkinson. Although Australia began the second half a man down it was in fact they who started the brighter side. Englands forwards gave away a careless free kick and with a quick tap and go Australia drove the ball downfield and after some outstannding work by Joe Roff spun the ball out to the left for Burke to score. Burke successfully converted his own try and went on to increase Australias lead with yet another penalty eight minutes into the second half, making the score 12 - 19. England needed to make changes. Matt Dawson was brought on for Bracken and Balshaw replaced Austin Healey. With victory in sight Australia began to slow the game down and the crowd became increasingly incensed. Wilkinson kicked a further penalty and with time slipping away England began to enforce an increasing amount of pressure on the Australian defence. With just seconds remaining Balshaw saw Englands only hope of victory and placed an inch perfect chip over the Australian defensive line for Dan Luger to chase. With outstanding anticipation Luger managed to touch the ball down. After confirmation by the video referee and the conversion by Wilkinson, which followed, England had managed to secure a memorable victory over Australia, winning 22 - 19.
