After a magnificent opening ceremony, where the British have once again demonstrated their perfectionism and their sense of show, sport has finally started. Obviously, it is the English that it was the first to shoot.
Not favored by the draw chickens (having inherited Wales and Australia), men Lancaster were starting against Fiji. A team must never be taken lightly.
3 first points
The British therefore had every interest to take their opponents seriously. What they did, delivering a beginning of serious match. Taking advantage of a front-flyhalf Volavola, the English took the scoring in the first minute. George Ford scoring the first three points of this World Cup.
In the fifth, the Fijians were pierced heart, it was a miraculous rescue Lobobalavu to avoid that the English register the first try. It was a matter of time, since the 10th minute, players Pacific conceded a penalty. On pénaltouche, teammates of Captain Robshaw sent the heavy cavalry with a bundled penetrating destroyer was going to the in-goal. The aribtre Mr Peyper gave a penalty try (10-0, 10th).
The Fijians tried quite a few skirmishes, by Nadolo including without reaching pierce the curtain in place of English who resumed their assaults. Nayacalevu saved in turn Fijian homeland. But on the next action, the English changed his wing and would flatten their second test by Brown (15-0).
Switches to light up
We then waited to see the English place. It did not happen. Fiji was the trigger Matawalu cardboard back that melee output, managed to get the trunk small side, to catch cold one, then two English defenders before being taken on the line. Thanks to an incredible extent, he managed to flatten. At least it was believed, because the idle showed that he had dropped the ball. Big disappointment, especially as the referee had initially lifted the arms granted to the test.
But in the melee that followed, Fiji before doing the effort and stung the English on the push. Volavola, flyhalf, then cracked a walk that passes light Nadolo and 120 kilos repenaient in the air and flattened in enbut, thus reducing the gap.
score at half-time was 18-8, after both teams have had a penalty.
Three points starving
The beginning of the second half soporific. In 20 minutes, he spent little or nothing. Too undisciplined, febrile, drafts, Chris Robshaw’s partners bafouillaient their rugby while three-quarters Pacific sowed panic in the English defensive curtains.
Until after a game of table -rugby, the match ignites. Nadolo that make use of his power and shows that it is living up to its reputation. Too bad he missed 8 points at the bottom to allow Fijians to believe a little more. Apart from three small well starving point, the Fijians were not rewarded for their efforts.
The muscular coaching of English proved surcharge. Since the fray first worked to crush the last Fijian forces. It was then three quarters, Brown, Joseph Watson and May who began to light the wicks from everywhere.
The offensive bonus
Mike Brouwn, him again, concluded strength a beautiful series of passes. Brown was missing the treble few minutes later on a final breakthrough Vunipula however managed to convert positively. A fourth test synonymous with crucial offensive bonus in view of the qualification and first place in the group. That is the essential for them. On overall content, copying is rather messy, satisfaction from ants in three-quarters of the legs.
In 15 minutes, the English have registered as many points than 65. The Fijians cracked again in the end.
