New Zealand held out on their own tryline to beat England and retain the Women’s World Cup in a thrilling final that featured 65 points and 11 tries in Auckland on Saturday.
England played three-quarters of the game with 14 players after winger Lydia Thompson was shown a red card for a head-high tackle but they still nearly pulled off victory thanks to the ferocity of their forward play. It completed a metamorphosis for New Zealand under veteran former All Blacks coach Wayne Smith, who was introduced this year after the Black Ferns were thrashed twice by England a year ago.
