Nigel Owens delivers verdict on refereeing call that provoked outrage as explosive new footage emerges

Nigel Owens has delivered his verdict on the huge refereeing call that caused uproar in the Rugby Championship clash between Australia and New Zealand.

French official Mathieu Raynal sanctioned Bernard Foley for time-wasting as the Wallaby fly-half went to kick the ball to touch from a final-minute penalty in front of his own posts with the green and golds leading 37-34 in the latest round of the southern hemisphere tournament.

All Australia’s worst sporting nightmares then came true as the All Blacks went over for a try that won them the game at 39-37. Cue outrage from Pine Creek to Wagga Wagga.
