France 10-30 England: Bateman, Farrell, Davies, Makinson with tries

John Bateman scored a try having been named England captain against France

England claimed their first victory under boss Shaun Wane by defeating France in a Test match in Perpignan.

Liam Farrell, Tom Davies, Tommy Makinson and John Bateman all scored as a dominant England built a 20-0 lead over a struggling France by half time.

Corentin Le Cam and Justin Sangare then crossed for France, with Makinson and Bateman getting their second tries.

Wane's first game in charge ended in a 26-24 defeat by the Combined All Stars in June but this was his first Test match since replacing Wayne Bennett in February 2020.

The pandemic has disrupted England's international plans and they play only three more matches before the delayed World Cup gets under way next year.
