Sharp work from Alex Matthews to get her head up and into support for Natasha Hunt off the back of that messy scrum.
Canada looked a little like they had stumbled into a 80,000-strong disco, when they were just looking for the library, as they gathered under the posts.

Alex Matthews
The pressure pays!
England's scrum mashes the Canada lines, Natasha Hunt peels off the base and nearly goes herself but hands off to number eight Alex Matthews to dive in.

Canada didn't give away a single penalty in the semi-final against New Zealand in the first half. This just shows the pressure England are putting them under.
Tatyana Heard was questioned for her semi-final performance. She has been excellent. John Mitchell said his selection was based on credit over the last two years - that's why.

Sir Alex Ferguson said the first time he saw Ryan Giggs he "floated over the ground like a cocker spaniel chasing a piece of silver paper in the wind."
Natasha Hunt was full of chat at the back of that rolling maul. I think at least half of it was directed at referee Hollie Davidson, asking her to keep any eye on Canada collapsing it.
If they had that would be Davidson walking under the posts to award a penalty try and a probable yellow.

Amy Cokayne
No team in women's rugby has been able to stop England in situations like this - they gather a lineout, form a maul and their pack shoves their way over the line. Hooker Amy Cokayne has the ball at the base and gets the score.
