England kept their slim Rugby League World Cup hopes alive with victory over France, but what do Brian Mc Dermott's side still need to reach the semi-finals?
A potential first group-stage exit in World Cup history became an increasing possibility after a heavy 30-12 defeat to Tonga in their tournament opener, with England still needing results to go in their favour even after an 82-0 demolition of France.
The unique format for this year's 10-team tournament sees the three teams in each of Group B and Group C feed into a combined six-team table, with only the top two sides then progressing to the semi-finals.
England currently have two points with one group stage match remaining, against Papua New Guinea on Friday (9.05am kick-off), where they will need another convincing victory to have any chance of progressing.
