England Wins Third Women's Rugby World Cup with Record-Breaking Victory Over Canada

News summary

England secured their third Women's Rugby World Cup title by defeating Canada 33-13 in front of a record crowd of 81,885 at Twickenham. The Red Roses showcased dominant forward play, with tries from Ellie Kildunne, Amy Cokayne, Alex Matthews (two), and Abbie Ward, overcoming an early Canadian lead by Asia Hogan-Rochester. Despite a yellow card to England's Hannah Botterman that sparked a Canadian resurgence, England's pack held firm to close out the victory. Kildunne's individual brilliance and Matthews' consistency were key, while England's scrum and maul repeatedly overpowered Canada. This win marks a significant moment for English women's rugby, demonstrating their rise in popularity and success after previous final losses. Canada's efforts fell short due to errors and England's superior set-piece execution and defense.
