65' Lloyd Williams thinks he has scored for Wales, only to find that Romain Poite has stopped play 80m away for an infringement.

20 Sep 2015

60' 10 Welsh phases stopped before they win the penalty. Another lineout. Another rolling maul on the way.

20 Sep 2015

45' Uruguay can't secure the ball from their lineout and they give Wales the ball back. 

20 Sep 2015

44' Uruguay hanging on for dear life as they win a penalty inside their own 22m area. 

20 Sep 2015

43' So much tackling beginning to take its toll on Uruguay now...

20 Sep 2015

42' Priestland goes for the little chip over the top off the scrum but it amounts to nothing and Uruguay can clear their lines.

Sport24 will be back to bring you the 2nd half in a few minutes...

20 Sep 2015

The rolling maul has been the highlight of Wales' game so far, but they are still making a lot of unforced errors. That will be what they hope to eradicate from their game in the 2nd half.

Again, Uruguay battle to cope defensively when Wales swing the ball wide. It hasn't been the most convincing performance from Wales, but the scoreline suggests that all is well in Cardiff!
