For the first time since 2014 England have won a Rugby World Cup. I am so proud of this England team," Maggie Alphonsi, part of England's most recent World-Cup winning side 11 years ago, told the BBC. Three years ago England faced New Zealand in the final as overwhelming favourites, having won their past 30 Tests. The Red Roses had a chance at victory with one last line-out - their most potent weapon all tournament, but lost the throw as the clock ticked into the red. England recovered from an early scare and never looked back as they overpowered Canada in a 33-13 win, the second largest margin of victory in a Women's Rugby World Cup final.
