Against All Odds sums up that historic win , Samoa not only played against England but the referees, side line refs , video ref , the commentators, the rigged WC Organisers, the crowd with all that stacked against them but All could not defeat a nation of prayers and God sure heard them 🙏🏾❤️ Glad to be alive to watch a game that united our people around the world 🌎 Thank you Toa Samoa 🇼🇸
This is the highlight of 2022 for me. Came back to rewatch this game and still get goosebumps from it. What a year for our small nation. We will always remember this golden moment. Toa Samoa, faafetai tele lava 🙏🏾🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸
RLWC organizers booked samoas flight home the week prior to this match, they werent even meant to make the GF. So it's not surprising the refs weren't calling a fair match. What an inspiring playoff run from Toa Samoa and respect to Matt Parish for refusing to let the ship go down after that crushing loss in game 1 💪🇼🇸 regardless of the GF outcome these lads did themselves and their people very proud. I'm excited to see them go all the way again in the next one.
I love from the 8:00 mark, "samoa have lost all shape", 10 seconds later scores and humbles the biased commentators ! haha still have watched this so many times, not just beat England but the refs, commentators and the supporters ! 685 babyyyyy
Well done Toa Samoa. You didn't just beat 13 players. You also had to beat a rigged draw, the officials and the bias commentators. Against all the odds!! Awesome effort & discipline
I wonder how England managed to avoid Australia and New Zealand throughout the group and quarter final stages. The fixture gods obviously smiling on England. Far be it from me to suggest otherwise. However, England didn't expect to lose this after the 60 point drubbing they dished out to Samoa in the group stage. I think it was 70:30 in terms of England underestimating Samoa and giving them the respect they deserved. Samoa put a much better plan for this game, looked like they played together (wasn't the case in the group game) and out-played England on the day. Superb all-round by Samoa. They will have their hands full with Australia. But, no-one expected them to win this game and they did. If they manage to win the final, that would be a day of days in Rugby League history. I'll be supporting Samoa for Sunday.
I can't tell if you were being facetious or not? However, just in case you weren't, it was impossible for England to meet either Australia or New Zealand before the Final. They're the Home Nation, so the draw is designed that way. Personally, I think it's good that there are minnow teams in there who are getting the chance to play Test Matches against the big boys, but on the other hand it is a bit of a problem, because the top three teams spend a month playing easy games before they meet one another, then they suddenly have to play for keeps. I mean ... I suppose it's good in a way, because it allows something like this to happen, but I'm not entirely convinced that it ends up proving who the best in the world is. It's actually very hard to maintain your standard when you aren't being tested, and you're playing against weaker teams?
Dp you really think Australia winning this game? Like foreal tho i really dont think so..Samoa got the forward to break that defense and the back 5 can play with anyone and on top of that the Samoan boys wanted it bad vs Australia they got no motivation and probably looking down on the Samoan team like you do..dont underestimate the power of the underdogs..Samoa will win there first world cup 🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸
The game of the century...still fresh to watch..still fresh to felt the win...remembering all Toa players till my last breath...yeah uso...still proud of you...
Dunno what you were watching, but they were just an English Northerner and a colour commentator English guy. What did you expect? In fact, the main commentator, while clearly behind England, was keeping it pretty even, and the colour commentator is there for the England bias, after all. And no, I am not a Brit, nor from a rugby-playing country, so as neutral as they come. Obviously, I only ever saw the highlight reel here, so maybe the two guys were far more pro England. Well done to Samoa for putting one over the England team. And this is about as much as I'll bother with League for the next few years.
Revisiting the moment of history making, and definitely the island boys, I mean 🇫🇯, 🇹🇴, 🇵🇬, Cook 🇨🇰 and even Samoa 🇼🇸 were all underdogs. The world rugby league were using them as in the gladiators days. Now the rule book is out, time to barred them for playing for their beloved nations. It won't be long before the island Boys rule the rugby world arena. Pacific boys keep it up, cos the referees and the commentators were all ganging up to down the Island teams. An Australian referee refereeing a game between Australia and Samoa??? Go Toa Samoa 🇼🇸
If the match officials called it fairly Samoa wins 13+, they did everything they could to get England through but the pride and passion of our Samoan boys overrode them. Up the TOA! History makers ❤️🇼🇸
Malo TOA SAMOA our people is proud of u guys u guys out done ur selfs and we are so grateful to have u guys to play for samoa keep it up never give up and we’ll keep supporting * NO MATTER WHAT* 🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸
The whole PACIFIC family came along on board to support the powerhouse of Toaz except for 80% of 🇹🇴 💯. 🐀 refuse to live in our shadows for many years, but that’s ok, our first and last names will be your identifications forever in this world. But for the other 21% 🇹🇴, nothing but love for you and how you look at us as a family 💯.
This always cheers me up. I remember how i felt that night seeing that field goal go through and me and the usos jumping around, crying and losing our voices cheehooooing!! SAMOA MO SAMOA❤
It was Samoa against the Whole country England. How satisfying to win on their home ground against all odds. Bring back the world cup to Pacific region where there is fan base and much improvment in referee, updated video calls and fare commenting.
The more you watch the more you realise how much the match officials tried to do their best to get England over the line. It makes this match so much more satisfying to watch!
Well done, Samoa! It's inspiring to see this against the narrative. All Pacific Islands are proud of you. You can see hear the bias in the commentating, best watched on mute.
I hope we'll get to play you guys at the end of this season in nz ... tickets will be sold out Im sure #MMT... btw... this win by Samoa against Eng completes the biggest turnaround in sports history in my opinion
Samoa ua le ole Lea TOA O SAMOA ua e sii SAMOA I luga ole ma'a salafa. Foi le viiga ilo tatou Atua. Fa'afetai fa'afetai fa'afetai lava le talk mana'o. Ole tapuaiga a SAMOA ua fiafia. Onosai ileisi taua olea tapua'i atu Lou nu'u GB you all. 🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
True but at least the ones he did miss were difficult ones, He is a decent goal kicker, Englands Kicker though got all his kicks even the sideline ones.
PRAISE GOD ALMIGTY OF ISRAEL, GLORY TO Our LORD JESUS CHRIST❤ THANK YOU HOLY SPIRIT VICTORY IS YOURS, Well played Toa Samoa❤❤❤ GOD was definately on our side that night we played that game, PRAISE THE LORD❤PEACE N LOVE TO ALL.❤❤❤
Half the Samoan team are in the two Australian State of Origin teams. All the English players who play in the Australian NRL made it into the England team. And if Dom Young can make it into the National English team, then England really lack wingers.
One of the greatest underdog comebacks or trick plays in sporting history, giving England false expectations after the drumming they gave the Uso's in the opener, only to miss their home tournament final.lol 😂
SOOOOOOOOOO PROUD of these boys against all the odds, the England team, the crowd, at times the ref, but the fricken commentators.....WTF....!!!!!!!!......well there you go....SAMOA WON and ENGLAND LOST.....WHY....??????....SAMOA were the better team...you can be the best team in the World but its ON THE DAY.....UP THE MIGHTY TOA xxxx
Every time I watched this I cry. What a proud moment for any Samoan and any Islanders. We come from small islands and we keep on trying ❤🇼🇸❤️
When one island wins, it's a win for the south Pacific islands. I love my island brothers🇵🇬,
😊😊😊uhu
can't get enough watching this..Samoa shook the whole NRL history...much alofa from Tonga
Ref really tried to help England win and Samoa still won thru it all🇼🇸💯
Even the commentators were biased 🤌🏼
Cheeehooo
Happened again with AUS. Respectfully. We couldn’t pull it off this time.
Thats why i prefer NRL Ref than a Super league.

Probably. Because they won't actually win a world cup lol

Don’t forget England players some were grubs

I don't think he's that good anyway, he's just fast,
wow never knew this existed. What channel could I start watching?
OMG! Did they pause time at 78.51 while England attempts for their conversion after their last try?😳
There's a certain time for a kicker to kick before the timer stops it happened to Crichton like twice buddy
Stfu Samoa is your daddy
One of the greatest underdog comebacks or trick plays in sporting history, giving England false expectations after the drumming they gave the Uso's in the opener, only to miss their home tournament final.lol 😂
The fact that no one in the England team (coach, trainer, players) did their scouting and realise Critta kicks goals blew my mind 😂
Epic match 🏴🇼🇸🏆

How fast the stands emptied when samoa won
