1 min: England 0-0 Japan. George Ford kicks off for England on a day where conditions could scarcely be more perfect for rugby.
The Nationals anthems are played: With the pre-match formalities almost completed, kick-off is just moments away. England line up in black shirts, shorts and socks, while Japan’s players wear red and white striped shirts, white shorts and white socks.
