Canada ended England's remarkable 39-match winning run with a 26-26 draw at Sandy Park in Exeter, as the WXV Global Series clash delivered four tries apiece in front of 14,573 spectators.
A Historic Break in England's Dominance
Canada became the first side to avoid defeat against England since New Zealand beat them in the 2022 World Cup final, with John Mitchell's team now unbeaten in 40 Tests. The result also ended England's perfect home record against Canada, having won each of their previous 13 home meetings.
Claudia Moloney-MacDonald opened the scoring for England in the 32nd minute after a brilliant surging run by Sadia Kabeya, but Canada had earlier been denied a brilliant solo effort from Asia Hogan-Rochester for a forward pass.
End-to-End Action and Late Drama
The match saw England twice come from behind in the opening 25 minutes, with tries from Moloney-MacDonald and Hannah Botterman cancelling out scores by Lizzie Gibson and DaLeaka Menin. Canada struck back on the stroke of half-time when Menin crashed over from close range.
In the second half, prop Bryony Field restored England's lead before Canada scrum-half Olivia Apps scored under the posts after a dancing run from Sophie de Goede. England looked set to steal the win in the final 10 minutes but were denied by a turnover in front of the posts and a loose carry.
Match Officials and Team Line-Ups
The match was officiated by referee Clara Munarini from Italy, with assistant referees Aurelie Groizeleau and Alexandra Ferre from France, and TMO Matteo Liperini also from Italy overseeing the contest.
England's starting XV included Kildunne, Breach, Jones (capt), Rowland, Moloney-MacDonald, Harrison, L Packer, Botterman, Field, Muir, Talling, Ives Campion, Burton, Kabeya, and Matthews, with Campbell, Carson, Bern, Burns, Feaunati, M Packer, Robinson, and Aitchison on the bench.
