Manu Tuilagi scored two tries as England beat Tonga 35-3 in their first pool game of the Rugby World Cup.

England led 18-3 at half-time.

Tonga kept England frustrated for long periods, and despite a solid defensive display , England coach Eddie Jones will want much more from his side as they look to win the Webb‑Ellis trophy for only the second time in their history.

England will now take on the USA at 10.45pm this Thursday.
