Samoa are through to the Rugby League World Cup semi final for the first time in history, after emerging 20-18 winners over arch-rivals Tonga in an intense quarter final.

After establishing an eight-point lead with 20 minutes to go, Samoa held on bravely as Tonga stormed home and threatened to steal a winning try in the final minute of the match.

Samoa will play England in the semi final at 2.30am Sunday while in the first semi final Australia will play New Zealand at 7.45am Saturday.
