Match Summary:
England will battle it out Australia for World Cup supremacy courtesy of their upset 30-22 victory over defending Cup champions New Zealand in tonight’s earlier match.

The Kiwis shot out to an early 10-0 lead in as many minutes thanks to two quick tries to winger Emmanuel Toka, but the England were able to take a slender 14-10 lead into the break courtesy of some fine goal-kicking from English utility Mark McKinley.

The game was all but over when the English crossed for three quick-fire tries midway through the second half, before New Zealand added some respectability with a couple of late four-pointers.
