Manly have advanced to the second week of the NRL finals and ended Canterbury’s Cinderella season with a thrilling 24-22 win in their elimination final at Accor Stadium.
The Bulldogs controlled long stretches of Sunday’s match but a 45-metre runaway try from left centre Tolu Koula helped put the Sea Eagles on top in the final 10 minutes. Bulldogs five-eighth Matt Burton had two chances to level the scores in the last two minutes but his attempts at two-point field goals pulled up short.
