    Wales need to be careful.

    It has been a very gritty performance. The scoreline is looking quite respectable for Wales so they do not want to let the game slip away now.

    Wales 13-24 England

    The wind has just gone from Wales' sails now.

    You get the impression this game is beyond them at this stage.

    Changes for England as prop Will Stuart and flanker Ben Earl replace Kyle Sinckler and Sam Underhill.

    A change too for Wales as centre Owen Watkin comes on for Nick Tompkins.

  3. 'Willis one of best in world'published at 17:41 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2020

    Jack Willis just eyes it up. He is licking his lips thinking about nothing other than getting himself into that position where the opposition just aren't getting it off him.

    Brilliant skill, probably one of the best in the world.

    Owen Farrell

    That is what Jack Willis has been doing all year for Wasps.

    Wales wing Louis Rees-Zammit catches a kick but he's swarmed by England tacklers, and their replacement flanker latches on to the ball to win a penalty.

    It's in a great position for Owen Farrell, who stretches England's leads to 11 points with less than eight minutes left now.

    Another update from your replacements correspondent here: Wales prop Rhys Carre is on for Wyn Jones.

    A line-out for England after some good spoiling work by Maro Itoje from a Welsh line-out.

    Wales 13-21 England

    England will be happy with the way this game is heading now, with the ball almost exclusively in Wales' half.

    Owen Farrell launches another high ball, which Callum Sheedy catches and he takes the tap quickly.

    He passes to Louis Rees-Zammit who jets off and kicks ahead.

    George Ford covers and kicks into touch.

    A net gain for Wales.

    It's some big, fresh legs for England against a tiring Welsh team.

  8. Replacementpublished at 68 mins

    Wales 13-21 England

    Changes on both sides. England prop Ellis Genge is on for Mako Vunipola, hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie replaces Jamie George and Jonny Hill is on for Joe Launchbury.

    That's some power to bring on at this stage.

    For Wales, Callum Sheedy is on for Leigh Halfpenny and will come on at fly-half, with Dan Biggar moving to full-back.

    Owen Farrell

    Romain Poite has checked with television match official Brian MacNeice and an English scrum is upgraded to a penalty as Wales hooker Elliot Dee is deemed to have knocked on deliberately.

    It's on the Welsh 10-metre line, in front of the posts, and Owen Farrell slots it over.

    If there were any fans allowed inside Parc y Scarlets, they'd have a stiff neck considering how much time the ball has spent in the air.

    It's still a fascinating contest, though.

    Kick after kick from both sides. It's been effective from England in the main, helping them control territory and possession.

    A case in point now as they work the ball into Wales' 22 and they'll have a scrum.

    Great catch from England wing Jonny May, who beats Josh Adams to claim Ben Youngs' box-kick.

    England are closing in on the Welsh 22, with their forwards carrying purposefully and powerfully as ever.

    Wales, however, have strength in numbers and, when the ball moves wide, they drive Henry Slade and Anthony Watson into touch.

    Wales 13-18 England

    England, looking to reassert their dominance, opt for the aerial route once more and that's quite a straightforward catch for Leigh Halfpenny, who calls for the mark.

    England make a change. Flanker Jack Willis, superb in the English Premiership this season, comes on for Tom Curry.

  13. Postpublished at 60 mins

    Wales 13-18 England

    Just as Wales get a little momentum, yet another line-out goes awry.

    They really have been their own worst enemies at times this autumn.

  14. 'Sloppy from Itoje'published at 17:25 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2020

    That was sloppy from Maro Itoje. You think England have got things under control and then there's an unnecessary slap down from Itoje.

    It was pretty cynical. It happens too many times when England are under pressure.

  15. Penalty - Wales 13-18 Englandpublished at 59 mins

    Dan Biggar

    How's that for an offload from Nick Tompkins?

    The Wales centre gets a leg drive going but, picked up by English tacklers, a maul is called.

    No problem, Tompkins thinks, as he pops the ball out to Rhys Webb.

    England lock Maro Itoje is then caught offside - not for the first time - and Dan Biggar kicks another penalty.

    Wales just edging their way back into the contest.

    Rhys Webb clears with a big box-kick and Elliot Daly, who has just been receiving treatment, drops it.

    Luckily for Daly, the ball goes backwards and a kicking exchange ensues.

    From the next phase, however, Daly concedes a penalty and Dan Biggar kicks into touch inside the English half.

    The game is starting to open up. There are players on both teams who it may suit.

  18. Penalty - Wales 10-18 Englandpublished at 56 mins

    Dan Biggar

    Wales use the crossfield kick to good effect, with Leigh Halfpenny gathering a loose ball after England fail to deal with Dan Biggar's kick.

    The regrouping English defence are offside and Biggar slots over a simple penalty.

  19. Postpublished at 54 mins

    Wales 7-18 England

    Louis Rees-Zammit shows a glimpse of the speed which has seen him dubbed 'Rees Lightning' for his displays with Gloucester, sprinting past - and handing off - England replacement Anthony Watson before he is tackled.

    Wales need to get their young wing into the game more often.

  20. Replacementpublished at 52 mins

    The latest change sees Aaron Wainwright come on for Shane Lewis-Hughes in the Wales back row.
