Wing Henry Arundell scores five tries as England slice apart Pool D's weakest opposition to all but qualify for the Rugby World Cup quarter-finals.
Wing Henry Arundell scored five tries as England sliced apart Pool D's weakest opposition to all but qualify for the Rugby World Cup quarter-finals.
The 20-year-old's clutch of scores matches the most scored by an England men's player in a Test and moves him to the top of the tournament try-scoring standings in his first appearance of the campaign. England, as expected, were far too strong for the spirited, but limited Chile, as their forward power and backline edge had the Rugby World Cup debutants in near-constant retreat.
While Arundell's feat will steal the headlines, the pick of their 11 tries came from Marcus Smith, who raced onto his own kick after a searing break from his new role as a full-back. England will complete their pool-stage campaign in a fortnight's time against Samoa, and could even be assured of their last-eight place before then should other results work their way.
