Rugby World Cup 2015: Canada 15-17 Romania
ROMANIA scored 17 points in the final 28 minutes as their powerful pack overcame Canada in the biggest comeback in Rugby World Cup history.
Gordon McRorie’s penalty and a Daniel Tailliferrer Hauman van der Merwe try put Canada 8-0 in front at half-time.
The lead became 15-0 as Jeff Hassler bounced his way out of some tame tackling to touch down.
But number eight Mihai Macovei went over for two late tries and Florin Vlaicu’s penalty won it for Romania. bbc
