  2. Penalty - Italy 13-18 England

    Paolo Garbisi

    Paolo Garbisi brings Italy back in touch.

  3. Sin-bin - England (Sam Underhill)

    Italy 10-18 England

    It is high and dangerous. It will be an off-field review. He could be in trouble.

    Will it be upgraded to a red card?

  4. Italy 10-18 England

    Italy have run themselves ragged. They have played really well but there isn't a lot left in their tank.

  5. Italy 10-18 England

    They are checking a potential high shot from Sam Underhill.

  6. Italy 10-18 England

    England are controlling this game. Far from a thriller.

  7. 'Nicotera was deluded'

    Challenging for the ball over the ruck, off his feet. I'm laughing because how am I going to describe that other than the usual: you’re dizzy, you’re tired, you’ve made loads of tackles and you think no one is going to see you lift up your left elbow and knock it out of his hands. On this occasion, Nicotera was deluded.

  8. Penalty - Italy 10-18 England

    Fin Smith

    Another good strike from Fin Smith.

  9. Sin-bin - Italy (Giacomo Nicotera)

    Italy 10-15 England

    So stupid.

    Giacomo Nicotera, while on the floor, uses his elbow to try and dislodge the ball.

    He wasn't even close to getting away with that.

  10. Italy 10-15 England

    Maro Itoje wins a penalty on the ground. The England captain is having his best game this championship.

  11. Italy 10-15 England

    Strong and aggressive defensive from England. Cadan Murley does well to scramble back.

  12. Italy 10-15 England

    Italy win a scrum penalty to respond to that battle.

  13. Italy 10-15 England

    Maro Itoje made it very clear to Fin Smith that he was going for posts.

  14. Italy 10-15 England

    I have never seen that hint of aggression from Maro Itoje in a decision like that.

  15. Italy 10-15 England

    Ben Earl does really well to collect a kick that was dinked over England's defensive line.

    England's player of the championship?

  16. Penalty - Italy 10-15 England

    Fin Smith

    Nails it.

  17. Italy 10-12 England

    Scrum penalty for England. They've had the better of Italy in that department.

    The kicking tee is on.

  18. Italy 10-12 England

    The ball is dropped over the line. Well, just before it. Ben Earl thought he had the touchdown.

  19. Italy 10-12 England

    Elliot Daly has looked very assured at the back for England. Another kick through forces a penalty. Huge chance now from five metres out.

  20. Kick-off

    Italy 10-12 England

    England have never lost to Italy. Just reminding you of that one.

    We are back under way.
