New Zealand defeat below-par England
Last updated on .From the section Rugby League
New Zealand defeated England 9-2 at the Olympic Stadium to level the three-Test series and set up a decider next week.
England took a 2-0 lead in front of 44,393 in London but failed to add to that as the world's top ranked team edged an attritional match.
The match was tied 2-2 at the break, but Shaun Kenny-Dowall touched down in the corner shortly after the restart.
After the video referee ruled out a try for both teams, Jordan Kahu slotted a drop-goal to seal victory for his team.
