Bath Rugby's Semesa Rokoduguni named Man of the Match after rampant England win

England Rugby romped to a 58-15 win over Fiji at Twickenham, scoring nine tries in the process, with Semesa Rokoduguni getting two of them.

Fellow Bath man Jonathan Joseph got a pair of tries as well in what was a proud day for the blue, black and white who were representing their country on Saturday.

It was indeed Joseph that went over first - after just four minutes - when the ball was worked to the left-hand side of the pitch for him to bundle over for his, England's, and the match's opening try.

After an external England try sanwiched in the middle, it was Rokoduguni's turn to notch five points for the Red Rose when he squeezed past the opposition defence to dive over.

Rokoduguni, who was born in Fiji, was only making his second England appearance - two years after his debut, and his 14th-minute try was his first for his adopted homeland. 

Joseph was on-hand to score again, in the second half, 15 minutes after the restart after he had a clear run following a brilliant interception. Bath colleague George Ford then converted two points instead of regular kicker Owen Farrell. 

Rokoduguni then got his second in the 68th minute after a simple grab and touch-down for England's eight of nine tries.
