That's it from me - thanks for joining our coverage of today's Pool B tie.

So Italy have won both of their opening games to put themselves in a strong position to contest the top two spots of a pool which includes New Zealand and South Africa.

It's the Springboks next for the Azzurri and that will be their first real test, but Conor O'Shea will have his side pumped and ready to go.

Our attention now turns to the main event of day seven as England resume their Pool C campaign against the United States.

Until next time...

Italy have done what they wanted to do and can now regroup and get their best side ready for the two big games against South Africa and New Zealand.

It's a big ask but they will be reasonably happy about where they are.

It's all over and Italy have completed the job in some style.

That's two wins from two for the Azzurri as they prepare for the Springboks with their biggest victory in World Cup history.

Or not.

Canada win the ball back and they're off again.

Ciaran Hearn throws a terrific offload out the back door before Peter Nelson tries the cross field kick the other way.

The ball bounces over Michele Campagnaro but Matteo Minozzi is on hand to dot the ball down behind his own line.

It's quite an untidy end to this one now but Canada are showing plenty attacking intent as they try to breach the Italian line for the second time.

The ball is knocked on in the tackle and Italy have the scrum deep inside their half.

That might have been Canada's last chance.

Italy pump the ball deep into Canadian territory but the North American side will have the scrum after the Azzurri knock on.

Canada win the penalty as Italy are penalised for not driving straight.

Agony for Canada!

It's cruel but Nigel Owens disallows the try as Ben LeSage is adjudged to have knocked on before Tyler Ardron runs in under the posts.

Canada are still awaiting their first point at this World Cup.

The replacement back is sent to the bin for trying to sack the maul illegally.

The line-out is successfully retained and the Italian maul drives over the line with Luca Bigi holding the ball.

But we are checking to see if the ball was grounded.

Italy are back on the front foot and Canada captain Tyler Ardron is given a stern telling off as his side concede another penalty.

"Have a word with your team and with yourself," orders Nigel Owens.

The man-mountain number eight is on his final warning before someone in red is sent to the bin.

Italy kick to touch and they will have a line-out close to the Canada line.

Be seeing you!

Matteo Minozzi brings the razzle dazzle to the Level5 Stadium as he steps a couple of red shirts before bursting clear.

Italy lose the ball but Wasps fans will be excited to welcome the Italian flyer to Coventry next season.

Another Canadian knock on - there handling has really let them down.

Peter Nelson measures his chip over the defensive blue line perfectly but Ben LeSage spills the ball forward from a good position.

Italy are back down the other end and the game has started to become fragmented, with tired legs on both sides.

David Sisi concedes a penalty for flying straight through the ruck off his feet, but it's becoming a very open game now.

This picture shows you how badly the pitch has been cutting up.

The ground staff were out in force trying to repair it at half-time.
