Lizell try helps England U20 to comfortable win

The news from North Wales is that England U20s have just beaten Wales by 26-8. Both Lizell and Sasha came on early in the second half, Lizell nearly scoring within minutes - crossing the line only for the try to be disallowed due to an earlier offence. However, she was not be be denied and put her name on the scoresheet later in the half.

Sasha didn't manage to get on the scoreline this time, but did make several of her characteristic charges upfield with half the Welsh team being required to bring her down - thus leaving vast gaps for everyone else to exploit.

Comfortable though the win was for England, the result was far closer than the 43-0 win last season. However, it sets England up for the challenge of the defence of the Nations Cup in July when they will face the USA, Canada and South Africa at Brunel University in north London (full details of match dates etc. have still to be announced).
