There's some debate as to whether it is a try or not as Gear's foot may have gone into touch before the ball was grounded. The decision is referred to the video referee Photograph: Tom JenkinsIt's an anxious wait for England's coach, Martin Johnson, but he looks disappointed as the big screen says that the TMO judges have given the try. A Dan Carter conversion makes it 7-0Photograph: Tom JenkinsJust four minutes later, the visiters get another try. They win the scrum and Kieran Read gets the ball and easily pushes through the England defence and over the line.

It was a battling performance by the England side with more running play than usual and a strong scrum performance. They were let down by some dodgy defence work and some handling errors.
