England's record-equalling run - Match by match

By Christopher Devine

Ireland dashed England's hopes of securing a second successive Six Nations Grand Slam on Saturday - a defeat that also denied the reigning champions a record breaking 19th successive win.

England matched New Zealand's marker of 18 with a thumping victory over Scotland last weekend, opening the door for them to claim the outright record for consecutive triumphs by a tier-one nation.

However, a 13-9 defeat at the Aviva Stadium means England must now settle for a share of that honour with the All Blacks.

The first of England's sequence of wins came at the end of Stuart Lancaster's reign, as Uruguay were beaten in a Rugby World Cup dead rubber.

Eddie Jones duly succeeded Lancaster and did not taste defeat as head coach until Saturday.

We take a look at England's results during their record-equalling run.
