England's Henry Arundell scores against Fiji at the Allianz Stadium and (right) celebrates with Marcus Smith

Arundell switched on the afterburners against FIji for his crucial 69th-minute try that gave England control of their autumn clash at Allianz Stadium, which they eventually won 38-18.

The Bath wing was the first to reach Marcus Smith's grubber, outpacing speedsters Kalaveti Ravouvou and Sireli Maqala and prodding the ball forward before touching down.

It was a thrilling reminder of the 23-year-old’s athletic gifts as he celebrated the end of his England exile after spending two seasons in French club rugby by showing he is an X-factor talent who is too good to be overlooked.
