    Kevin Brown
    Former England international half-back on BBC One

    Victor Radley's been sensational in this tournament and he looks to pass but Crichton makes the decision to put his hand out to intercept the pass.

    Chris Hill goes across and makes a valiant effort but what an athlete that man is.

    Stephen Crichton, goal Crichton

    Disaster for England! Victor Radley's pass is intercepted on the left wing.

    Stephen Crichton gambles, grabs it, and runs 60 metres to put Samoa on the brink of a World Cup final.

    Crichton's kick for extras is good.
