LONDON (Reuters) - A magnificent 13-man defensive effort and another assured kicking display by Bernard Foley earned Australia a 15-6 victory over Wales on Saturday to secure a Rugby World Cup quarter-final against Scotland and leave the Welsh to face South Africa.

Both teams had been assured of progressing thanks to victories over England, but there was still everything to play for at Twickenham, with the Pool A winners getting an easier route to the final.
