England qualify for the World Cup quarter-finals with a game to spare thanks to a bonus-point victory over 14-man Argentina in Tokyo.
England had not been behind in this tournament but after Matias Moroni ran on to Urdapilleta's cross-kick and kicked on again, only May's pace got him to the loose ball first to save the try.
It was a frenetic start, and the decisive incident stemmed from all that passion and energy spilling over. Farrell hooked the subsequent long-range penalty, but England began to look for width to work and tire the 14 men. Only the inaccuracy of Farrell's place-kicking kept Argentina anywhere close, with all three conversions missed in addition to that penalty to keep England's lead down to 15-3.Jack Nowell showed his finishing prowess as England scored three tries in the second half
Ford was the next to capitalise on all that quick ball and flagging defence, Tuilagi taking three defenders with him before his Leicester team-mate spotted a gap from close in to crash over.
