George North scored two tries for the Barbarians in his final appearance before retirement as Wales narrowly beat the invitational side 33-31 at the Allianz Stadium in Twickenham.
North came off the bench in the second half to a tremendous ovation as the Wales great brought down the curtain on an illustrious career against the country for which he scored 47 tries in 121 caps.
North's first touch was a familiar one as the giant wing took Harry Plummer's pass and barged his way through two defenders to score.
After crossing the whitewash for a second time, North fittingly had the last word as he converted Santiago Arata's score with the final act of the match.
