Tonga overcame stern resistance from Wales to win 32-6 in St Helens and remain on course for a potential Rugby League World Cup quarter-final showdown with Samoa.
Winger Daniel Tupou scored a hat-trick of tries on a satisfying night for Tonga’s former St Helens coach Kristian Woolf on his farewell appearance at the Totally Wicked Stadium, where history was made with Kasey Badger becoming the first woman to referee a men’s World Cup match.
