Australia's Kangaroos prevailed 36-18 against an impressive England side at the Olympic Stadium in London to set up a Four Nations final clash against New Zealand.
The home side led until five minutes from half-time, but three unanswered tries to Australia in the second half decided the contest.
England survived a couple of early scares, with Greg Inglis dragged down just short of the tryline by three defenders before England centre Mark Percival did superbly to defuse a dangerous Cooper Cronk bomb, and the hosts opened the scoring through a Gareth Widdop penalty goal in the 12th minute.
