Ben Youngs insists George Fords accelerating development means the England fly-half is pulling the strings like a veteran international.Fords vision and range of passing was imprinted all over Saturdays 58-15 victory against Fiji as the Grand Slam champions amassed nine tries to extend their winning run to 12 Tests, 11 of them secured under Eddie Jones.While the 23-year-olds goalkicking remains a concern after missing two of three conversions once Owen Farrell had left the field, the assured timing of his distribution identified him as the undisputed ringmaster at Twickenham.Jones views Saturdays man of the match as a rare talent, declaring that his alignment on phase ball was absolutely outstanding, the best I have seen for a long time, and his half-back partner Youngs was equally impressed.George plays far beyond his years in terms of his rugby knowledge and how he plays the game, Leicester scrum-half Youngs said. It was another performance in which he looks 28 or 29 and as if hes been playing for years.Hell continue to grow and the exciting thing is theres way more to come because hes still only a young guy. George puts people into space, gives them time on the ball and makes the right decisions at the line. He knows how to play flat and how to play deep.This game was another example of how he gives the ball at the right time, giving guys one-on-one collisions and then pulling it out the back to guys like Elliot Daly so that they can do their thing.Its the right thing at the right time when under the microscope. It was an incredible performance from him and hes going from strength to strength.Fiji were repeatedly opened up by Fords ability to pick the correct pass as they slipped to a record defeat in the fixture and Youngs believes the challenge now facing the Bath playmaker is to develop his own running game.For him the next thing is to be able to actually take the line on, Youngs said. Its about being confident to transfer that from club to international level. This game wasnt a day where he could do that, but he automatically attracts defenders which creates space for other guys.You have split seconds to make decisions and he makes those decisions look incredibly easy. And then he has to execute the pass as well. Hes patient....waiting and waiting and then boom, theres a pass over the top and Semesa Rokoduguni walks in.Rokoduguni, Jonathan Joseph and Joe Launchbury scored two tries each as the outclassed Fijians were put to the sword, but the performance was not without its flaws as England leaked three soft tries either side of half-time.We could probably be a bit more ruthless when we get chances because we left a few out there - it could have been 12 or 13 tries, Youngs said. The tries we conceded were annoying and we should have done better in holding them out. How to keep our intensity and foot on the throat is a lesson for us.Theres certainly more to come and thats exciting, we just need to iron out certain areas.Emphatic victories over South Africa and now Fiji have left England on course for an unblemished year that continues with Argentinas visit to Twickenham next weekend before concluding against Australia on December 3.The Pumas finished bottom of the Rugby Championship, although Jones views them as the second best team in this years competition, and Youngs is wary of their threat despite their 19-16 loss to Scotland on Saturday.Ive watched them closely in the Rugby Championship. Theyre exciting and theyve changed their style from scrum, maul and kick to becoming an adaptable side, Youngs added.They move the ball a lot and at times we got caught by Fiji so they will be looking at that and thinking they can exploit us. Theyre a physical, fast, expansive team with the ability to use a tight game if they need to. DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- The record book shows Aric Almirola had one career Xfinity Series victory before Friday nights win at Daytona International Speedway.He never counted that win, at Milwaukee in 20007, refused to take the trophy and felt it was a black mark on his record all these years.Now hes got a real win to his name.Almirola was declared winner of Friday nights race when NASCAR determined he was the leader when the caution flag froze the field shortly before the finish line. It was technically the second win of his career, but he doesnt accept that win because he was replaced midway through that race by Denny Hamlin and it was Hamlin who drove the car to victory lane.For me, this is my first Xfinity win, he said. I know I have a win, but theres always been an asterisk next to it. I hated the fact that I got credit for that. I did not like that. I didnt take the trophy when they called me the winner. I didnt take any of the credit all along.I didnt feel like I deserved to win that race because I wasnt in the car when that race was over. But tonight I was. Tonight, we went to victory lane and Im here and I was in the car. So this is my first Xfinity win.Almirola now has wins in all three of NASCARs national series.He celebrated this latest victory, the first since he won a rain-shortened Sprint Cup Series race at Daytona in 20014, by taking the checkered flag and running alongside his Ford Mustang as it was pushed to victory lane. He was met there by his young son, who pouted earlier in the day when he had to leave the playground but was promised his dad would win a trophy if he went inside and ate his dinner.I told him that if he came in and ate his dinner, that Daddy was going to go race in the Xfinity race and we were going to get a trophy tonight. And we got a trophy! said Almirola as his son, Alex, high-fived him.The race had already beeen sent to a two-lap overtime shootout when a multi-car accident on the backstretch clouded the final running order.dddddddddddd A four-car pack led by Almirola and Justin Allgaier hurtled toward the finish, but NASCAR had to freeze the field because of the accident that happened behind them.I knew it was close. I knew it was really close, he said. I knew they wrecked behind us. I was like, `When are they going to throw the caution? I knew I was in front of him.The cars were brought down pit road as NASCAR reviewed the running order, and Tampa native Almirola was given the win.Allgaier, in a Chevrolet, had thought he was the winner until NASCAR made the call for Almirola.I guess it just depends on what replay you look at, he said. We definitely had the momentum down the back there. ... When you lose them by that little bit, it definitely is frustrating. When you can be disappointed with second, though, its still a good day.Before the overtime finish, NASCAR said Darrell Wallace Jr. did not maintain speed and forced him to swap positions with Allgaier before the race went green. He finished 20th and took to Twitter to blast NASCARs race control.Got the muppets up there officiating tonight! he wrote. Never know how to react under pressure... Whatta joke.Ryan Sieg finished third and Joey Logano was fourth.Brendan Gaughan was fifth and followed by Ryan Reed, Jeff Green and Spencer Gallagher. Chase Elliott and Erik Jones completed the top 10.The finish was reminiscent of the May race at Talladega, where Elliott Sadler and Brennan Poole both waited in their cars at the finish line for NASCAR to declare the winner. It went to Sadler, who had a shot to win Friday night until the race went to overtime and he had to stop for gas. ' ' '
