Super Rugby: Force beat Reds in Australian derby

BRISBANE, Australia (AP) Fullback Jayden Hayward beat three defenders to score a 79th-minute try and give the Western Force a 32-29 win over Queensland Reds in Super Rugby on Saturday.

It was the Force's fourth consecutive win, a first in the club's nine-year history.

Australia flyhalf Quade Cooper had a chance to level the often spiteful match after the siren had sounded, but his dropped-goal attempt sailed just wide to the right.

A hobbling Cooper handed the goal-kicking duties to Michael Harris in the second half, and the inside center kicked four penalties.
