Williams: Roars as he crosses the Australia tryline

Playing in the final match of his international career, the Wales winger scored the last try of the game in the 24-18 defeat to Australia at the Millennium Stadium.

"I'm sorry we could not win," said Williams, a competitor to the end who was clearly emotional as he was interviewed on BBC1 immediately after the match.

"Australia were the best side."

Williams' final score increased his record for tries for Wales to 58, in his 87th Test.

"It's meant everything (to play for Wales)," he said.

"Growing up as a child that's the only thing you want to do. I have been very privileged and lucky to have that chance. I've had the best time of my life.

"Every time I pull on this jersey it's the best feeling ever. I'm going to miss it."
