The England Women's Rugby Team Wins the World Cup: Victory at the Record Stadium.
Great Britain - Rugby World Champions
According to The Sun: The England women's team, the "Red Roses", fulfilled their dream at the World Cup by crushing the Canadian team.
At the match, which gathered a record nearly 82,000 spectators, the team, led by John Mitchell, showcased their strength, achieving their 33rd consecutive victory after a setback in Auckland four years ago.
PAThe Allianz Stadium crowd went wild supporting captain Zoe Aldcroft as England, trailing after conceding the first goal, launched an impressive counterattack against their brave but overwhelmed Canadian opponents.
As is often the case, the team star, defender Ellie Kildun, led their recovery.
She broke through the Canadian defense and scored just two minutes after goalkeeper Asia Hogan-Rochester opened the scoring.
After this, England's attacking line continued to dominate, applying constant pressure on their opponents.
Hooker Amy Cockayne converted the second goal with a classic attack from a line-out, while eighth player Alex Matthews added another goal 25 minutes before the end, preventing Canada from leveling the score.
Although Sophie de Goede managed to cut the deficit to three points when Aldcroft intercepted the ball, England was already leading by 16 points.
The "Red Roses" scored another goal after the break when Abi Ward broke through the defense, and Hogan-Rochester converted her second goal into the left corner.

When Kildun converted a penalty, Matthews secured the victory with a close conversion.
