New Zealand start with the ball and they drive up to the halfway line after three tackles.

One last push.

Here we go. Both sets of players are heading back on to the pitch.

But it was soon cancelled out:

If you missed it, here's England's opener:

Andrew: Some real skill , Strength and talent on show. Great game so far.

Mark: Game is flying by

Both teams are muscling up well. New Zealand probably didn't expect this but they are gaining metres and Craig Richards will be telling his players they have to restrict those metres.

England captain Emily Rudge, speaking to BBC Two:

"We started really strong I'm really pleased. We stepped off for 10 minutes and let them back in. But I'm feeling really confident. I hope we can use the energy to win the second-half.

"I'm feeling really good. We've done a lot of things well, we just need to keep going."

It's like a game of human buckaroo.

Emily Rudge is all smiles during her half-time interview. Does she not feel the same tension I feel?!

New Zealand have the lead but England end the half with a bit of momentum.

Good luck calling this.

Twenty seconds left. New Zealand aren't going anywhere with the ball.

England are not going to beat the Kiwis down the middle. We are playing a bit too deep, we need to be pushing through the line.

Scrappy again from England as a loose pass sees Amy Hardcastle scrambling before the centre is forced into a knock-on.

A bit of a waste.

Knock-on New Zealand and England have the ball inside their opponent's half again.

Well they were until great work from England's Emily Rudge ends her side's latest set deep into New Zealand territory.

The home crowd has found its voice again.

England struggling to gain any territory on their sets at the moment with New Zealand's powerful pack really in control during the later stages of this first half.

Leah Burke you beauty!

The winger saves England a try catching a crossfield kick from New Zealand's Page McGregor over her own try-line.

Katelyn Vaha'akolo was waiting just behind Burke for an error.

And they do, but New Zealand's next possession starts on the halfway line.

Criminal. Set restart on the last tackle helps New Zealand march down the field.

But England recover with Amy Hardcastle eventually diving on top of a grubber.

England just need to keep the ball and get to the end of this next set.
