The USA Eagles went on with the job in the second half as they secured a dominant 36-17 win over Tonga in Chambery. Leading 19-7 at halftime, the United States pushed clear when Ruben de Haas picked off an errant long pass and streaked 40m to score in the corner. Tonga breathed some life into the contest when Sione Havili-Talitui floated a long pass for Tima Fainga'anuku to score out wide. AJ MacGinty burrowed over to score from close range in the 54th but Tonga weren't done as Siaosi Nginingini crossed with 15 minutes to go. MacGinty added a penalty to push the Eagles' lead out to 19 points which remained the final margin.
