England seal biggest-ever win vs Greece at World Cup as Young scores four tries

England beat Greece 94-4 at the Rugby League World Cup, with Dom Young becoming the leading try scorer at the tournament after scoring four in the first-half

Four-try Dom Young continued his remarkable World Cup odyssey as England eased past minnows Greece.

The Newcastle Knights flier had already established himself as one of the tournament superstars after bursting on to the international scene in spectacular style. After doubles against Samoa and France, the giant winger bagged four more in the first half alone here at Sheffield United’s Bramall Lane.

It took his World Cup tally to eight in just three games and helped England along the way to their biggest-ever Test win. Boss Shaun Wane will hope the 21-year-old can maintain such form as they now begin preparations for a likely quarter-final with Papua New Guinea.

Crucially, his side – led brilliantly by Warrington half-back George Williams – appeared to come out of this last group game unscathed. Greece is one of the many feel-good stories of this World Cup.
