Interception score arrives with clock in the red.
If anyone thought a noise at Twickenham would not reach the decibel levels of the full-time whistle of the Rugby World Cup final last year then they were firmly wrong. Zoe Harrison’s last-gasp winning try against New Zealand was met with ear-bursting cheers and brought 59,871 fans to their feet with their hands in the air.
The Red Roses ability to continue their unbeaten streak mimics how Neo dodged bullets in the blockbuster the Matrix. Last Saturday they drew against a Canada team looking to avenge last year’s World Cup result and against New Zealand at a hot and humid Twickenham they pulled off a comeback win.
The Black Ferns, the last team to beat England back in 2022, held a half-time lead after a display of attack, but their rivals had an extra edge in the second 40.
Maddie Feaunati was a highlight for the Red Roses. The No 8 is ever dependable for John Mitchell but at HQ she preceded attack with lengthy breaks and turned over the ball in defence. Marlie Packer, promoted from the bench just before kick-off because of an injury to Sadia Kabeya, also had a good outing before being forced off with an injury of her own.
New Zealand were in great form heading into the match, winning their past eight matches, and had a positive first half but discipline let them down in the second including a yellow card for Veisinia Mahutariki-Fakalelu. Despite losing to England for the fourth time in a row there were bright sparks which lit up this Test match, namely Amy Du Plessis.
