All Blacks Edge Wallabies

New Zealand beat Australia 19-18 in a tense affair to take the Bledisloe Cup. The match went right down to the wire and was sealed when Carter nailed a penalty to give them the lead with only one minute remaining. The match was one of the all time greats in this series. Australia lead almost the entire way and took a 15-6 lead into the break. New Zealand twice had tries disallowed in controversial circumstances. The frustration was finally overcome when the All Blacks converted a penalty, then scored off of a beautifully worked try. That gave them their first lead at 16-15, but the Wallabies responded right away and converted a penalty. That made it 18-16. The All Blacks pressed for a late score to win it. Carter had an open drop goal chance, but shanked it badly. That appeared to be it for New Zealand, but Carter got one more chance. This time he didn't miss and the All Blacks survived. New Zealand is now 2-2, while Australia falls to 0-3. The All Blacks will now pull for their rival, Australia, to beat South Africa next week.
