England beat New Zealand 26-19 in the WXV, with Zoe Harrison scoring a late, last-gasp try to seal victory as the clock runs out.
Several outlets describe the decisive sequence as Harrison arriving at the right moment after earlier missed chances. The Guardian reports she had moments before missed a match-clinching penalty, then came back to intercept the ball and convert the opportunity into a winning try. The Independent similarly highlights Harrison’s late scoring “with the clock dead” to snatch the result.
In both accounts, New Zealand responds strongly and is close to creating its own winning moment, but the late interception and finish by England’s fly-half swings the outcome. The Guardian also adds detail about the atmosphere at Twickenham and the crowd’s reaction, while the Independent focuses more narrowly on the final score and Harrison’s decisive intervention.
