Australia v New Zealand - Live

G'day. So, is this the real final? No team has ever been beaten on the way to winning the World Cup. Australia have never lost to New Zealand in a World Cup. One of those facts is going to change in the next two hours.

What it all means is that New Zealand is a very edgy place to be right now. Everything from Quade Cooper to the kick-off time (9pm local time) is causing huge

levels of anxiety across both islands. Merely mention Dan carter's name and even the most reserved individual will drop to the floor, beating the fist on the ground, screaming "why, why, why". But, hey, there's always Aaron Cruden. Follow minute-by-minute commentary of the World Cup semi-final between Australia and New Zealand at Eden Park, Auckland on Sunday Oct 16 2011, kick-off 9.00 BST. #

Read pounces on a Wallabies mistake. A swarm of black jerseys are in support - they're just 5m out from Australia's line - but Williams is guilty of playing the ball off his feet. Penalty to the Wallabies and Cooper clears.There's some tired bodies out there as Kaino receives some attention.
