Tries: Bauder, Corrigan, Menin, Seumanutafa Cons: De Goede (2)

Canada, who previously snapped England's 39-match winning run with a 26-26 draw in Exeter in September, are the first team to defeat the Red Roses since November 2022, when they lost to New Zealand in the World Cup final.

Playing in front of 18,621 fans, a record for a standalone women's fixture in North America, the result also marks England's first defeat by Canada since 2016 and their first against their hosts on Canadian soil, having won their previous 11 away matches.

Canada's Savannah Bauder took advantage of Zoe Harrison's yellow card to open the scoring in the 15th minute, but it was England who took a 14-5 half-time lead, hitting back late in the first half through Maddie Feaunati and Harrison, with Laetitia Royer in the sin-bin for the hosts.
