Result: England 20-36 Australia

Australia continue their winning start to their Four Nations campaign with a win over England.

Australia have continued their unbeaten start to the 2011 Four Nations campaign with a 20-36 win over England at Wembley.

Steve McNamara's side took the lead after Kevin Sinfield's long pass found Ryan Hall for an early try.

The Kangaroos fought back through Luke Lewis, who squeezed past the England defense and made it over the line to tie the score. Johnathan Thurston's ensuing conversion then gave them the lead after Sinfield's earlier miss.

Australia's Williams was able to extend the lead even further with another score, before Ryan Hall added to his second to reduce the deficit at the break.

Tries from Greg Inglis and Paul Gallen put the visitors even further ahead after half time, before Jack Reed's timed jump allowed England to snatch one back.

However, a late Thurston interception pinned the home side back and set Darius Boyd up to barge in for another score.

Sam Tomkins put in Chris Heighington, who pulled them back to within ten points, but England's hope was short-lived as Cooper Cronk was able to put them out of reach.
