England think they finally have lift off in the second half as Sadia Kabeya crosses after a fine team move.

It won't stand, though, as Holly Aitchison is adjudged to have thrown a forward pass in the build-up.

England still haven't scored any points in this second half.

That cheer for world player of the year Ellie Kildunne was the loudest today.

A true superstar!

The England fans like this one.

World Player of the Year Ellie Kildunne is onto the field to some ovation.

A bit of XVs inexperience perhaps.

Jade Shekells is tackled in midfield but does not release the ball before trying to get back to her feet and attack once again.

The last 10-15 minutes have been average from England, apart from the runs from those replacements Sarah Bern and Hannah Botterman.

It's a bit laboured from England. I would like to see more phases.

Another penalty for Italy is pumped into touch.

England have not been at their fluent best since returning to the field from the sheds.

Scrums are an area I would like to see the officials speed up, in terms of getting the players down and ready quicker.

GB Sevens player Jade Shekells is on for her England debut.

She replaces Helena Rowland and slots into the centre with Holly Aitchison moving to fly-half.

Wallop.

Sarah Bern takes some stopping in full flight but Sara Tounesi makes a huge hit on the England prop.

The crowd enjoyed that collision.

I don't think England are getting enough territory in this second half.

Italy's try-scorer Francesca Sgorbini has also been influential at the breakdown as she wins a penalty close to the half-way line.

As we tick towards the hour mark, we still wait for the first points of the second half...

Another change for England as Sadia Kabeya replaces Marlie Packer in the back row.

Maddie Feaunati charges towards the line but two Italian defenders manage to shove her into touch.

We have had 15 minutes of action in the second half without a single point scored.

Italy have to be given credit.

As Brian Moore alluded to in my last post, England have introduced some fresh front-row power in the form of Sarah Bern and Hannah Botterman.

They replace Kelsey Clifford and Maud Muir.

It is getting better for Italy isn't it? In terms of continuity and the speed of play.

But things are not going to get easier now that Hannah Botterman and Sarah Bern have come on.

Sweet Caroline was unfairly cut out just as play resumed. The crowd took it into their own hands to finish the song.

Feels like the game is dying away. Here come some replacements to bring a needed second-half lift.

The crowd have done very well to keep up the noise.

Italy have really shown up in the first 10 minutes of this second half. They've been all over England, but England have been defending well.

The adopted anthem of England men's football team, 'Sweet Caroline' rings out around the LNER York Community Stadium before Italy silence the crowd.

The Azzurri near the line once again but the final pass misses the target.

These late TMO calls are taking a lot of the tempo and energy because that three and a half minutes [waiting for a decision] is very energy-sapping for the players.

If it's not obvious, then it's not obvious.
