Wales became the first team to qualify for the quarterfinals of the Rugby World Cup after producing a record-breaking performance to hammer Australia 40-6 in Lyon, France, on Sunday.

Scotland, meanwhile, remained in contention to reach the quarterfinals with a 45-17 bonus point win over Tonga, although it will likely need to beat Ireland in its final Pool B match to progress.

Warren Gatland's Wales side, which labored to victory in its previous matches against Fiji and Portugal, looked like it might be in trouble when it lost influential flyhalf Dan Biggar after just 12 minutes.
