Six-try England see off Fiji
Six-try England see off Fiji



England made it nine wins in a row by beating Fiji at Twickenham on Saturday.

The hosts scored six tries in their 38-18 victory.

A tight first half ended with England ahead at 14-13 thanks to tries from Luke Cowan-Dickie and Immanuel Feyi-Waboso, both converted by Fin Smith.

Fiji scored tries through captain Tevita Ikanivere and Caleb Muntz, neither of which were converted by Muntz, although the flyhalf did land a penalty.

But as was the case in last week’s 25-7 win over Australia, the bench played a decisive role for England in a second half featuring Ikanivere’s second try.

England added four more tries after the break through co-captain Ellis Genge and replacements Jamie George and Henry Arundell before regular skipper Maro Itoje came off the bench to go over five minutes from time.
