England kept their Six Nations title hopes alive with a commanding 47-24 victory over Italy at Twickenham on Sunday. The win, which included seven tries, extended England’s perfect all-time record against the Azzurri. Heading into the final round of the tournament, England is in second place, just one point behind France. France can secure the title with a bonus-point win over Scotland, but England still has a chance after securing their third straight victory in the Six Nations. Left winger Ollie Sleightholme scored two tries, with additional tries coming from Tom Willis, Tommy Freeman, Marcus Smith, Tom Curry, and Ben Earl. Despite the win, England suffered a setback when center Ollie Lawrence left the game early with a knee injury. Italy managed three tries, but couldn’t secure a bonus point. England now looks ahead to a crucial match against Wales, while Italy will face Ireland in their final game.
