Jarrod Evans kicked the match-winning points to secure Wales a stunning last-gasp victory against Japan in their second match of the autumn internationals. Steve Tandy is currently answering questions from the press, which are being published further down.
Wales vs Japan is due to kick off at 5.40pm GMT on Saturday 15 November at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff. Viewers in the United Kingdom can watch the match live on TNT Sports 1, with coverage on the channel from 5.30pm GMT. A live stream will be available via discovery+.
Wales 24 (Dan Edwards, Louis Rees -Zammit, Nick Tompkins tries; Edwards 3 conversions, Jarrod Evans penalty), Japan 23 (Kippei Ishida, Faulua Makisi tries; Seungsin Lee 2 conversions, 3 penalties). HT: 7-7
Steve Tandy's side showed character to claim a 24-23 victory after looking dead and buried with five minutes left on the clock. Winning is the most important thing but this was an abject performance and if Wales put in a similar performance over the next fortnight against New Zealand and South Africa the final score will be beyond embarrassing.
Japan coach Eddie Jones has made two changes to his starting line-up for Saturday's test against Wales in Cardiff despite his side playing for a fourth successive weekend.
