England 34-12 Japan: Three second-half tries secure bonus point in second World Cup win
England were able to turn the screw in the second half to secure an impressive bonus-point win over Japan at the Rugby World Cup at Stade de Nice on Sunday. A scrappy opening 40 minutes saw very little between the sides but after the break, tries from Courtney Lawes, Freddie Steward and Joe Marchant secured a bonus point following Lewis Ludlam's earlier effort.
