Tebaldi box kicks and it goes out for touch inside the Namibia 22

Italy win their lineout and take it down before box kicking it. Parisse gathers it and goes down

Namibia gather well from Allan's restart. Tromp kicks the ball out for touch

Teams are on the field awaiting kickoff. The weather has taken a turn for the worse as it is currently raining. This will change the second half of the game, but in whose favour?

Italy have won just one of their nine matches in 2019, beating Russia 85-15 at San Benedetto del Tronto in August.

It's been a rather calm game so far for Italy and Namibia. Italy have had the most to say as they took control of the match. Namibia have been scrambling to defend and attack against the Azzurri. Namibia still have a chance of gaining some points and will definitely want to do so in the second half. But will they score enough to take control of the game? Only time will tell as we wait in anticipation for the second half!
