England won the first match in the 2015 World Cup at Twickenham ….reports Asian Lite News
England won over Fiji in the opening World Cup match. Billy Vunipola muscled over for a late try to give England a 35-11 win in a disjointed display at Twickenham, BBC reported
“It was a big occasion and there were a few nerves. We got a good lead but didn’t put the nail in the coffin,” Lancaster told BBC Radio 5 live.
“We had to work hard and that last try late in the game was a massive relief.”
Two tries from full-back Mike Brown and the impact of a superior set of replacements saw Lancaster’s men home.
However, had Fiji been more clinical with their kicking the scoreline would have been closer.
