A try-scoring return by Wallaby Bernard Foley was not enough to keep the semi-final light flickering for Kubota Spear Tokyo Bay, who fell to their seventh loss of the season in a dramatic 22-20 defeat by Brave Lupus Tokyo in Japan's top tier rugby competition.
Brave Lupus won thanks to an injury time conversion by All Black five-eighth Richie Mo'unga, after Spears' backrower Pieter 'Lappies' Labuschagne had been yellow carded for a professional foul moments before former All Black and Crusaders centre Seta Tamanivalu scored in the 80th minute to tie the scores.
