SYDNEY - Australia breathed a sigh of relief Monday after a "great escape" to scrape into the World Cup semi-finals, with the nation's media saying they deserved the highly controversial win.
Iceman Bernard Foley's penalty a minute from time saw Australia crush Scotland's dreams with a heart-stopping 35-34 victory at Twickenham, in a match overshadowed by a late penalty decision by referee Craig Joubert.
