Owen Farrell finally finds his kicking boot to sentence him to a sudden execution and subdue France to win the Fall Nations Cup in Twickenham.
England’s favorites before the match needed a last-minute attempt by Luke-Cowan Dickie to take the match to sudden death.
In an additional period of extra time, Farrell missed a direct penalty kick to win the match.
But the captain went up again to kick from a difficult angle to win the title.
England’s players raced to recruit their captain while the ball split the menus to finally put up an extraordinary rivalry.
Bookmakers had expected 17 points to win before kick-off. Alex Corbusiero and Abby Brown, England players past and present, expect more assured victories when interviewing the stadium announcer before the start.
Instead, the 2,000 fans, who are returning to Twickenham for the first time since March, were treated to a cliff hanger that ends completely far from keeping up with the rest of the Fall Nations Cup.
He nearly veered from the scenario to win a French team that denied more than 20 first-choice stars by an availability agreement with their major clubs.
Louis Carbonell, the young player who led France’s junior national team to victory in the World U-20 Championship final over England in 2018, saw a creep in a kick to leave the hosts in need of a diversion attempt to force the French national team into extra time four minutes before the end. .
It was a mission that England had met. Just. Kwan Dicky sped from behind the rolling punch in the final game of the game to start the penalty shootout.
With exhaustion and brains defending the new look, the game finally opened up as the two sides searched for the knockout.
It was England and Pharrell who had finally descended to avenge the February defeat in Paris at the start of the Six Nations.
France’s energy lights up Twickenham
From the first moments of the match, France showed the raw enthusiasm and energy it had to deliver the competition. Cameron Walkie followed the opening match and pulled catcher Anthony Watson into touch.
England never fully regained control. France, full of run and adventure, refused to play the runner-up in the wait that many gave them before kick-off.
Farrell got the first points of the day as England’s Scrum forced a penalty kick but Draft France was rewarded when 22-year-old Matteo Gallibert punched between Farrell and Jimmy George before feeding Brice Doolin with a good score.
England dominated the group, but struggled to define the visiting team, who enjoyed the chaos and space created by their quick play.
As the half drew to a close, England seemed to have France where they wanted it.
Tom Curry rattles their tent five meters away. But a wonderful defensive group from a French team, now coached by former Welsh defense coach Shawn Edwards, pushed back the hosts and pacified two thousand fans on their home turf, as they kept their seven-point advantage until the end of the first half.
England’s mistakes continued to allow the rough French national team, which had only 68 matches against the hosts, to clear out difficult stadium positions in the second half.
Farrell kicked the tee, Dali fully rallied, and five of the French streak were stolen by the visitors.
And when Farrell missed another shot on target almost from the front, belief prevailed on the French bench.
Each decision was encouraged by the visiting coaches, and each striker was slapped in the back by his teammate. England has held firmly to its kick-start game, whether through tactical discipline or a lack of ideas.
The match appears to be over.
But, when it really mattered, England plunged into its deep wells of experience to finally settle in the final which many had expected would be a formality.
