Dubai ((IRB.COM) - England beat France in a fine Cup final 29-12 to defend the Emirates Airline Dubai Sevens title they won last year and delight the ex-pat crowd at The Sevens stadium. In doing so they climb to second in the HSBC Sevens World Series standings, seven points behind Gold Coast champions Fiji.
Three nations, New Zealand, France and South Africa, lie three points adrift of England ahead of round 3 in Port Elizabeth next weekend. Tries by Isoa Damu and Dan Norton gave England an early 12-0 lead in a physical encounter.
France hit back through their own pace man Renaud Delmas to cut the lead to five points, but two tries by Player of the Tournament Mat Turner put England 24-7 ahead at half time. Delmas clawed one back for France soon after the break, but England worked hard in defense to hold their lead and in the dying seconds Rob Vickerman crossed to cap a fine win.
