England recovered from conceding an early try to score eight times in a 40-8 win over France in Toulouse.
Leeds winger Ash Handley, St Helens full-back Jack Welsby and Catalans' Tom Johnstone all scored twice, while Warrington duo Matty Nicholson and captain George Williams also crossed. A French team containing plenty of Super League experience was rewarded for a fast start with an 8-0 lead after 20 minutes, with Arthur Mourgue adding a long-range penalty to his conversion of Yaha’s opener.Welsby's acrobatic finish got England on the scoreboard, before Harry Newman raced clear down the right touchline to set up his club team-mate Handley and put England in front for the first time in the game.
Instead, Nicholson dived on Smith's kick to score next and a quick play-the-ball was the catalyst for Welsby's second under the posts.
