LONDON (Reuters) - England coach Stuart Lancaster took plenty of positives from his team's performance after a sparkling first half and spluttering second carried them to a 31-12 win over Argentina at Twickenham on Saturday.

The hosts started quickly and scored three good tries before the interval but lost their way before replacement number eight Ben Morgan charged through a tired Pumas defence in the closing stages to add a bit of gloss to the scoreline before next week's match against world champions New Zealand.
