Match Summary:
Two late tries to utility Kristian Hodson saw England scrape away with a hard fought 22-20 victory over a spirited Greece outfit.
An 80-metre intercept by Greek centre York Antoniou just after half-time looked to have sealed an upset victory from the tournaments debutant nation, but committed defence and the hard running of Hodson and prop Neil Cherryholme secured England their first competition points.
