Australia v England LIVE rugby: Result and reaction as England win deciding Test

England are in full-on game management mode. A slow developing maul wastes time. Jack van Poortvliet skews his first box kick more up than onwards, and Henry Arundell might have been offside chasing it, but is not spotted, and eventually gets underneath it. Van Poortvliet utilises his right boot again, this time more effectively - out of play inside the Australia 22, from where the Wallabies will launch their last offensive.

Three minutes to play. Australia go to their last throw of the dice - on debut, Suliasi Vunivalu, who can be dynamite in the open field if his teammates can give the wing a sniff.

Penalty to England! Marika Koroibete roams as he has all evening, thinking he spies space by a ruck, but running into only a brick wall of Courtney Lawes and Luke Cowan-Dickie.

There’s not a gold shirt in sight as Koroibete is turtled, and Cowan-Dickie punches the air in delight as the whistle blows and is rewarded for another timely England jackal.

Into the final five minutes as Australia explore the width of the SCG pitch. The two replacement flankers, Pete Samu and Rob Leota, lurk on the extremes, each marching on after good handling from the backs. Leota combines with Folau Fainga’a well.

A little bit conservative from England, allowing Australia to stall them too easily with a meek maul drive. Australia’s scrum.

Hard yards from Samu Kerevi! A stinging carry up the centre and fissures begin to open in the England defence.

Fierce defence from England! Ferocious stuff from the visitors, slamming back Australia’s strike runners in succession, Samu Kerevi and Marika Koroibete making little progress before Rob Valetini picks the lean but muscular pair of Nick Isiekwe and Courtney Lawes, predictably making limited progress.

Lawes is soon back on his feet, and feeding on the carrion - an expert jackal, and a penalty to England. He’s been excellent, again.

Henry Arundell comes on for England as their forwards assemble themselves for the lineout.

What’s the call? Front ball, Courtney Lawes up briskly up the front, and a very solid set-piece from England. A ten-metre drive allows Jack van Poortvliet an easy enough clearance.

Superb from Australia! They’ve caused problems up the right all evening, this time a lofted miss ball from Samu Kerevi hitting Tom Wright in stride, allowing the wing to sprint up the touchline. A quick interchange of passes and the ball is back in Wright’s hands, but he can’t then find inside support to open up the England backfield.

To their credit, the English defence reset relatively speedily. Kerevi, though, shows yet more skill, dropping ball to boot and prodding a well-directed grubber into the corner. England lineout five metres from their own line.

Nick Isiekwe replaces Ollie Chessum, who has had some good moments on his first start in the England second row. Australia are forced to call James Slipper back into action as Angus Bell becomes the latest Wallaby to leave the field in pain in this bruising series.

Jack Willis is on for England, too, and beats one defender on his first rumble, before England kick the ball away.

This time Australia are over! Two more penalisable offences are committed by England at the maul, but Australia keep things tight. Their front row have provided plenty of red-zone punch all series, and Angus Bell first carries in a forthright manner to move Australia within three metres.

Michael Hooper keeps the speed of ball high, wriggling his arms free to afford Tate McDemott quick access. The scrum-half’s sharp pass is to Folau Fainga’a, who won’t be stopped from close range.

Over goes Noah Lolesio’s conversion.
