Tonga Invitational XIII vs Australia Oceania Cup 2019 Highlights + Great Britain Highlights

A Tongan brick wall managed to corral a top-flight Australian team to upset the Kangaroos 16-12 in Auckland on Saturday night and usher in a new era of international rugby league. It had been 41 years since Australia had been beaten by a nation other than New Zealand, Great Britain or England. And that was France back in 1978. With the Tongans defending like men possessed and their supporters in the Eden Park stands singing their heroes to victory, the Pacific Island nation's greatest victory unfolded before everyone's eyes. But that's not to say it was a complete surprise. In 2017 Tonga knocked over New Zealand 28-22 in the World Cup. And then a week ago they subdued the might of Great Britain 14-6. They had said all week they wanted to make it three wins over Tier One nations in a row, and they completed their mission. #Tonga #Kangaroos #OceaniaCup
