Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson threw three touchdown passes in a 27-3 victory as the Oakland Raiders endured another miserable NFL outing at Wembley.

Four years ago, Oakland head coach Dennis Allen was fired after a one-sided loss to the Miami Dolphins in London and their latest visit proved just as humbling.

Jaron Brown, David Moore and Tyler Lockett were the grateful recipients of Wilson's throws, with Sebastian Janikowski booting the extra points as well as two field goals.

All eyes were on Marshawn Lynch in his first game against Seattle since reversing his retirement decision last year to play for the Raiders.

Lynch was a key component of the Seahawks' Super Bowl-winning team in 2014 but he was on the margins against his former employers, contributing just 45 rushing yards in 13 carries.
