It was the game of the World Cup so far.
Catch up on the action here.<\/a> And goodnight!
Australia should have enough, right?
Firstly, if they beat England they are safe. But you would expect the USA to beat Samoa, and if they put 70 points on them it could get interesting.
USA have a points difference of 135 to make up on Australia. England would need to hand out a heavy beating to put the Aussies at risk…<\/p>\n

FT: USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>
USA head coach Sione Fukofuka<\/b> speaking to World Rugby: <\/b>"I am proud of the players, we went down and fought for the game and I thought we had it as well.
"You can't predict Australia.
"The message is stay in process, stay in position, gain the points and hopefully we beat them."
FT: USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>
Player of the match Freda Tafuna: <\/b>"I am feeling good, credit to the girls because without them I wouldn't be hear.
"That third try came off Hope Rogers, so thank you for giving me the credit but it's all down to Rogers."
FT: USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>
Australia captain Kaitlan Leaney<\/b>: "It's a bit mixed, we were on top in parts and they came back, we feel flat, it feels like a loss.
"We made it hard for ourselves, discipline will be the overall message."
Australia made 229 tackles to the US' 100, USA had 63% possession. They will not know how they didn't win that but every time Australia needed to score they did.
Brilliant match.
Australia have England in the last group game, while the USA face Samoa. Both sides could still qualify behind the English…
FT: USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>
WHAT A GAME. It's tied.
USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>
Last minute. Someone surely have a go…<\/p>\n

USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>
Massive play from captain Kaitlan Leaney to win the ball back for Australia. Is a drop goal on the cards?!
USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>
Two minutes left. USA win a penalty in a scrum. Aussie heads go up.
USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>
USA would stay in contention for the quarter-finals if this is drawn. But it feels like someone is going to pinch this!
USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>
Rupert Cox<\/strong>
Rugby commentator<\/span>
How many times can we see it from a tight head…almost impossible to stop her from there.
USA 31-31 Australia<\/span>

Just when you think this game can't get any better!
Eva Karpani<\/span>
Goodness me…WHAT A GAME!
Australia score straight away as replacement prop Karpani goes quickly and scores. Sam Wood then hooks the kick inches wide to leave us tied with just a few minutes to go.
USA 31-26 Australia<\/span>

That is such smart play there to go quickly and pick off that ruck. That was some big big carries. What a moment.
USA 31-26 Australia<\/span>
Australia led by nine points just 13 minutes ago.
Erica Jarrell-Searcy (con Hawkins)<\/span>
USA lead again! Their forwards have been sensational in this second half and pick and go quickly off the floor time and again to stretch a tired looking Aussie defence. Lock Jarrell-Searcy spies a gap and runs clear to score with the conversion putting them a try ahead.
USA 24-26 Australia<\/span>
The US are all over them again…
It's the match of the tournament so far – without question.
