Good afternoon and welcome to Eurosport's live coverage of England v Samoa from Twickenham, where Martin Johnson's in-form side are looking to build on their thrilling victory over Australia last week.

Ref blows for full-time and England win 26-13. A decent enough effort from Johnson's men but they will be kicking themselves for conceding a try at the death. All credit to Samoa who proved difficult opponents, but England continue their learning curve with another victory at Twickenham. It was by no means a perfect performance but England tried a few new combinations and will take some important lessons from the game. Thanks for joining us.

Samoa pinch an England scum, spread ball to the right and replacement Otto goes over in the corner to make it 26-13. Well played by the visitors.

Stowers chips over England defence and catches his kick but loses the ball while going over the line. Unlucky for the London Irish number eight.

This time Samoa get a shove on and win penalty from a scrum. They take quick tap as they look to finish game on a high. Another penalty for Samoa. Brave effort from the Islanders as the clock ticks down.

Samoa bravely try to carry game to England but there are some tired bodies out there as they spill ball twice.

Hodgson on at centre for Hape, Armitage for Ashton.

Flood adds conversion and England lead 26-8.

Samoa chasing the game now and Banahan intercepts, passes to Care who feeds Croft in support on the inside and the replacement canters over for their third try and his first for England. 24-8.

England pinch scrum against the head. Fourie involved with some excellent carrying, Foden makes yards out wide and England awarded penalty for offside. Flood this time on target from in front of the posts to make it 19-8.

Fourie forces turnover and Youngs clears the ball as England make three more changes - Croft on for Haskell, Attwood for Lawes and Care for Youngs. Johnson on for Perinise in Samoa front row.

Fotuali'i makes lovely break as Samoa carry play into England's half. England pinch ball and Thompson kicks to touch. Daft, daft, daft from the England hooker who had his back three outside calling for the ball!

England are throwing everything at Samoa here but their defence is outstanding, especially in midfield where Mapasua has been a giant!

Foden is full of running as he again makes good ground, but his chip ahead is well fielded by Williams. England win lineout and drive towards Samoa line, but Palmer is penalised for holding on.

Foden cuts open the Samoa defence and Cueto feeds Banahan in support who goes over try line, but again ref calls them back as Cueto's foot was in touch. Lovely effort from England's backs and especially Cueto.

Cueto again bursts through midfield but is stopped in his tracks by a shuddering Williams tackle. Ball reaches Banahan on the other wing and the big Bath back makes good ground before being bundled into touch.

England scrum again too much for the Samoans as they concede another penalty. This time Easter hands ball to Flood, but Leicester fly-half misses from out wide. Flood did not appear to agree with Easter's decision and that came through with his snapped kick!

Cole on for Wilson and Thompson for Hartley.

Lovely catch from restart by Easter and England spread ball wide to Cueto on the wing. Sheridan makes charge down middle, England tap and go from penalty as they look to continue momentum. Good rugby from England as they pick up pace of the game.

Cueto again comes off his wing as England spread ball wide from scrum. Flood smashed to the ground but Samoa penalised for going over the top and chance for England to stretch their lead. Flood on target and England lead 16-8.

Cueto evades flying tackle from replacement Paulo, who looks punch drunk after his kamikaze effort!
