Rees-Zammit scored a hat-trick of tries as Wales maintained their momentum ahead of quarter-finals

Louis Rees-Zammit scored a hat-trick of tries as Wales maintained their momentum ahead of the Rugby World Cup quarter-finals with a six-try 43-19 win over Georgia on Saturday to seal top spot in Pool C with a fourth successive victory.

Georgia go home without a win but have been competitive and managed an 18-18 draw with Portugal. Their tries came from captain Merab Sharikadze, hooker Vano Karkadze and wing Davit Niniashvili. Wales scored their opening try when they set up a driving maul from a line-out and Francis barged over as they spun the ball into the midfield.

Wales extended their advantage after halftime as Rees-Zammit raced clear and he had too much pace on the outside for the retreating Georgian defence.
