There it is! Canada always have a player over on the left, they work it well to the flying winger and they dive in for a second try of the final.
The conversion is missed and we may have a game back on!

Straight yellow. She's not going to go for the bunker for review. That should be going to the bunker.

NOW THEN. England prop Hannah Botterman wraps up Karen Paquin in a big tackle, lifts her and dumps her on the floor.
That's a big hit and Botterman is shown a yellow card. She is off for 10 minutes.

I think this is too big a gap for Canada. The heads may go down now because England's defence has been incredible.
The pack for England just keep on delivering, time and time again.

England's forwards for the last five minutes have been dominant, they have done to Canada what Canada have done to this team. Abbie Ward, you are never going to stop her.

There it is! Canada survive a few drives on the line but England just recycle it and lock Abbie Ward powers over for their fourth try. Zoe Harrison thunks the post with the conversion.

England pack down for a scrum, just a few metres out...

The politeness given to the referees is still a massive part of this game as she says "a scrum please".

Ahhh...England drop the ball inches from the try line. They do have a penalty though.

England forwards just want a try so badly.

England have looked head and shoulders above all comers for the last couple of years and it is all paying off when it matters. They are knocking on the door once more...

Listening while watching the sunset on the Ionian sea in Albania. Cheering on the Red Roses, but would be just as happy to see Canada cause as upset as worthy winners.
