Sleightholme, 24, came on as a substitution and scored two times in the last part to enlist his initial two worldwide attempts.

Marcus Smith's touchline transformation from the Northampton wing's subsequent attempt put Britain into a 30-28 lead heading into the last 10 minutes.

The berserk finale likewise forestalled a fantasy first game at Allianz Arena for Sleightholme, who won his third cap on Saturday.

On Saturday, Britain will confront title holders South Africa, who crushed Scotland in their initial match of the fall on Sunday.

"We're trying fans' understanding, trying our understanding," conceded Britain number eight Ben Baron. "It seems like we dominated the match two times against Australia and afterward figured out how to lose it. Baffling.

"Not the standard, worn out issues, various issues, but rather the very overpowering sensation of another game that we've neglected. So something to think about."
