Historic victory for blue rugby: Italy beat Australia 28-27 (17-8) at the Franchi stadium in Florence in the second match of the Autumn Nations Series.

The Azzurri, fresh from the victory over Samoa, thus achieved their first ever success over the "Wallabies", one of the superpowers of world rugby.

"It's all true", reads a Facebook post from the Italian Rugby Federation, accompanying the photo of the triumphant Azzurri.
