I remember watching this match live at the time. It was first real upset in RWC history up to that point. Wales' defeat meant they could make it out of the group just four years earlier they finished 3rd in the RWC87. This victory by Samoa led to the start of the golden era of Samoan Rugby thru that decade.
Brilliant Western Samoa. Watched this when I was at university. At the time it was Will Carling and England. Then, it was all about polysyllabic surnames and and rugby played with skill and ferocity from another island nation.
Is this the tornament that scared europe so much they introduced laws to stop pacific islanders from playing for their country if they played domestic rugby in europe? Asking for a friend..

Fuck me. Good job it was only Western Samoa and not the whole of Samoa or Wales would've really been in trouble.

New zealand also
45.26 - its a welsh player's hand on the ball. that try should never have been awarded
Sore looser 😅
Try to watch RWC 1999😊
to be fair- though it does look like it- vaega did had his hand on it first and the welsh barely missed the ball and touched the ground instead 🤙🏽
