Result: England 67-3 Romania

England remain unbeaten at the World Cup after a dominating 64-point win over Romania in Dunedin.

England's only penalty of the game started the scoring early after just one minute, before Mark Cueto scored three tries in the span of 15 minutes to give them a commanding lead.

Chris Ashton added two tries in five minutes after the half-hour mark to put the game to bed before the break, despite Dan Dumbrava's late penalty for Romania.

Martin Johnson's men made another fast start after the half as Manu Tuilagi set up a Ben Youngs try.

Toby Flood, in for the second half, missed his first conversion attempt. However, the Leicester fly-half remained successful throughout the rest of the match as England put up another four tries, thanks to Ben Foden, Tuilagi, Tom Croft and Chris Ashton's third.

England will next travel to Auckland to face Scotland.
