England's Dramatic Six Nations Comeback to Win 16:14 Against Wales

England's ambition of rebooting their Twickenham campaign fell short, clinching a 16-14 victory over Wales instead.

For the first time in Six Nations history, Warren Gatland’s team led at halftime in England's stronghold. Despite storming 14-5 ahead with a penalty try and Alex Mann's touchdown, the favourites, England, responded. Fraser Dingwall's try and George Ford's decisive penalty sealed the win in the 72nd minute, rewarding their polished second half.

Wales experienced a narrow defeat at Twickenham by a 16-14 scoreline.

Despite a strong first-half performance with a penalty try and a score from Alex Mann, England's second-half resurgence, marked by tries from Fraser Dingwall and George Ford's penalty, secured the win. Wales' Mason Grady's yellow card for a promising England attack ultimately cost them victory.

Gatland's team will take heart from their improved performance, especially compared to last week's display against Scotland, as they prepare for round three against Ireland in Dublin.
