Henry Arundell became just the fourth player to score five tries in a Rugby
World Cup game as England beat Chile 71-0 on Saturday to all but guarantee
their spot in the quarter-finals.

Arundell’s contributions helped the 2003 winners move clear at
the top of Pool D and a victory over Samoa on 7 October would secure their spot
in the knock-out phase.

“I can’t believe it, it’s a bit surreal. I finished the
game and thought ‘how did that happen?'” Arundell said.

“We can’t get ahead of yourselves, we are focusing on Samoa
now and we want to win the group.

“The future can be whatever we want it to be,” he
added.
