lol about the whistle from the ref.

Solid defense from the Samaons holding the US ball carrier up and getting the turn over in their favor

someone grab the whistle from the ref, lol

USA with the scrum feed now ten meters from the half way

A slick move off the scrum from Samoa sees Perez breaking the defensive line but, the pass he received was adjudged to have gone forward

The USA defense does excellently to halt that attack but, play is brought back for the knock on by the Eagles

The USA with a good line out but the backs not managing to link up , knock it on and the Samoans counter

With twenty minutes to go , this match by no means a foregone conclusion. The USA looking like they have got a lot more to give before this match is over and the Samoans themselves will want to start battening down the hatches to get the necessary result

The influential Barrett on the field now for the Eagles , and we know all about his abilities from his 7's rugby exploits

The Eagles with the scrum feed
