  1. Missed penaltypublished at 22 mins

    Wales 7-5 England

    The penalty is just inside the England half but in front of the posts.

    Wales full-back Leigh Halfpenny has the power but he pushes it wide just to the right of the posts.

    Wales 7-5 England

    Dan Biggar makes a crunching tackle on Billy Vunipola and England are forced backwards, before clearing.

    Wales have a chance to counter-attack but Leigh Halfpenny's pass bobbles hopelessly along the floor.

    However, England are offside and Wales will have a penalty within kicking range.

    A second penalty conceded by Wales from a scrum.

    This could become a serious issue for the home side.

    England clear into touch beyond halfway.

    Wales 7-5 England

    This England kicking game is relentless - and it's effective.

    Wales wing Josh Adams knocks on as he tries to catch the latest kick, and England will have a scrum near their own 22.

    Dan Biggar was unhappy that he was tackled in the air in the build-up to that England try.

    Looking at the replays, the Wales fly-half had a point.

    That is the first time I have seen England walk in a try for a long time.

    That was a nice drill - great attacking play.

    Try - Wales 7-5 Englandpublished at 15 mins

    Henry Slade

    It did not take long for England to respond - and it's Henry Slade who makes amends for his earlier mistake.

    Flanker Sam Underhill breaks into the Welsh 22 and he offloads to Kyle Sinckler, who is stopped just short of the try line.

    England have penalty advantage and they recycle the ball quickly, shifting the ball out wide, where Slade has an easy run-in.

    Owen Farrell misses his conversion.

    Wales 7-0 England

    Wales make hard work of a spell of possession near halfway and Dan Biggar kicks high and into the English half.

    England scrum-half Ben Youngs responds with yet another box kick and, despite Biggar's excellent catch, England pinch possession and they are on the attack again.

    Wales definitely needed a bit of luck. They won't care how that try has come.

    Johnny Williams

    Wales lead - out of nothing!

    England have been kicking constantly and started strongest so far.

    But one kick by Henry Slade is charged down by Dan Biggar, who then kicks ahead along the right wing.

    Centre Johnny Williams follows up with another kick, and he races clear to touch down.

    Against the run of play, but Wales won't care.

    Leigh Halfpenny converts and they are 7-0 up.

    The Wales front row will want to set the tone early on in this game.

    This is a massive game for Wayne Pivac and his coaching team.

    He wants to get his ball-carriers into the game and first and foremost the set-piece is crucial.

  12. Missed penaltypublished at 9 mins

    Wales 0-0 England

    From that penalty, you'd expect Owen Farrell to put England ahead but the captain is wide with his effort from the right of the posts.

    Most unlike him.

  13. Postpublished at 8 mins

    Wales 0-0 England

    There's an early pattern developing here: England going through a couple of phases and then clearing.

    Leigh Halfpenny tries to claim the latest high ball but England lock Maro Itoje knocks on before he can get there.

    Scrum to Wales, and that's a worrying sign as they concede a penalty.

    It looks like tight-head prop Samson Lee was the one who got penalised.

    England are attacking a bit more than they did against Ireland last week.

    They seem to be trying to get around Wales, who are defending quite narrowly.

  15. Postpublished at 6 mins

    Wales 0-0 England

    England are happy to keep possession in their own half before Owen Farrell eventually clears deep into Welsh territory.

    Leigh Halfpenny kicks the ball back and then Ben Youngs does the same, but his kick is overhit and Wales will have a 22 drop-out.

    So far, so cagey from both sides.

    Wales 0-0 England

    England get a free-kick from that first scrum and Billy Vunipola takes it quickly, thundering into Wales' defensive line.

    England then go through the phases before George Ford launches a huge, towering kick into the Welsh 22, which Josh Adams claims and passes to Dan Biggar, who clears.

    After a brief kicking exchange, Leigh Halfpenny kicks into touch around halfway.

  17. Postpublished at 2 mins

    Wales 0-0 England

    Leigh Halfpenny drops the first high ball of the game and England will have a scrum 10 metres inside the Welsh half.

    The set-piece could have a big bearing on proceedings today.

    Frenchman Romain Poite, an experienced international referee and former police detective, is in charge today and he blows his whistle to start the match.

    England captain Owen Farrell takes kick-off and we're under way!

    Wales captain Alun Wyn Jones there, belting 'Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau' with his usual gusto.

    Did he hold that last note?

    No? Are you going to tell him? No, didn't think so.
