This could be costly. Tom Curry gives away another penalty and Frank Lomani misses his second kick of the day already.

Former England winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveI am watching the Fijian players and they are out on their feet, some of them could not get across to Joe Marchant to make a tackle!

Former England scrum-half on BBC Radio 5 LiveBrilliant play! Heads up running with execution. All day long, England traditionally go the same way, but not this time!

Owen Farrell does add the extras.

BBC Sport at Stade VelodromeNice touch there as Tom Curry and Josua Tuisova shake hands after that crunching collision. It may have hurt, but no hard feelings.

'Dangerous from Curry'published at 16:23 British Summer Time 15 October 2023

Matt Dawson
Former England scrum-half on BBC Radio 5 LiveThat is so dangerous from Tom Curry. For both of them, going in there with no arms and his head down. It is so bad, but it is not sending off bad.

The officials are looking at a no-hands tackle from Tom Curry - but there are no cards shown on this occasion, it's just a penalty...

The officials then call it back for a penalty against Tom Curry.

Marcus Smith just ran head first into a moving truck. And stopped it in his tracks. Come On England!

How unlucky is that?! Scrum half Frank Lomani hits both posts and sees the ball bounce out.

Great strength! Marcus Smith is tackled and lays the ball back for support but three Fiji players just move heaven and earth to get everything out of the way and take the ball. England then go offside to give Fiji a penalty which they elect to kick.

That was inspired stuff from Manu Tuilagi, he moved his body so well. England have a decent early lead in Marseille.

Former England scrum-half on BBC Radio 5 LiveToo much strength at that driving maul, Fiji had to squeeze in. A lovely late read from Manu Tuilagi to switch from right to left. Thanks for coming, try time!

Manu Tuilagi
Image source, Getty ImagesWhat a brilliant bit of finishing! England go two phases from the lineout, then find Manu Tuilagi on the left, he is half tackled but manages to spin away from cover in one movement and then touch down in the corner for his 20th try for England.
Owen Farrell hits the post with his conversion.

Image source, Getty ImagesBoth sides have to slow down the ball down, it is so ridiculously quick at the breakdown there should be tries aplenty.
Any back-rowers slow the ball down and you will be in with a half a chance.
It is lightning quick!

A mistake from Ilaisa Droasese collecting a box kick and England get a penalty. Again, they go for the corner and look to test Fiji at the lineout.
