England v Samoa: Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025 – live

Key events

20 min: Rowland skews a kick so Samoa get a chance to keep the ball from a line-out on halfway. They do so with prop Samuelu making good ground. But England’s defence is robust and seven phases later Samoa have gone backwards. Then there’s a massive counter ruck and England win a penalty on the floor. Ruthless from the Red Roses. Rowland doesn’t skew this kick. She drills it into the corner so England will get a chance to maul from about 12 metres out. But the line-out isn’t straight! Let off the for Samoa.
