Jason Robinson has gone over for England in their Six Nations clash with France at Twickenham.

The back scored his ninth international try as he raced under the posts.

Jonny Wilkinson, with a 100% kicking record for the day, duly converted to leave 12 between the sides.

Olivier Magne had opened the scoring with an opportunistic 10th try for France after batting down a Charlie Hodgson kick and running for the line.

Gerald Merceron converted the kick to give France the lead after Jonny Wilkinson had given the home side the lead through a penalty.

Wilkinson closed the gap with another penalty in the 19th minute and put over another after the resumption.
