• England 37-42 Australia
• Teams score five tries apiece in seesaw contest

On a grey old day in south-west London few anticipated great splashes of gold and green being daubed on a distinctly monochrome canvas. Australia will for ever remember this gloriously seesawing game, finally settled by a last-gasp try from the young replacement wing Max Jorgensen after England had overhauled a 10-point second-half deficit.

It was a mad finish to an extraordinary match that seemed to have been clinched by a 78th-minute converted try by Maro Itoje. While England were also indebted to two tries apiece for Chandler Cunningham-South and Ollie Sleightholme, this was Australia’s first win on the old cabbage patch since the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
