Fiji try!

England 24-17

Proper world cup rugby

Lawes could be in trouble here

Off the post - another costly missed penalty - same as against Wales

Fiji froze on the final penalty, went all pedestrian. Ref was spot on except the last penalty decision.

Great game, Fiji are awesome. England getting better and that was hard game. Well done.
3 really good 1/4 finals so far.

Unbelievably the population of Fiji is less than one million people according to Google

Looking forward to the France South Africa encounter or crash!

I am routing for France

What a start!

France could rue that missed opportunity to score an early second try

France 7 - 7 south Africa after 10 minutes

What a springbok conversion - superb kicking in this tournament

France need to concentrate
