England v Wales
Saturday, 2nd February 2008 - 4:30 pmTwickenham
England 19 - Wales 26 (final score)
In an amazing match the underdogs Wales claimed their first win at Twickenham for 20 years. The Welsh second-half comeback was staggering after the first half had been all England.
England had dominated in the first half, with scores from Jonny Wilkinson's boot and a Toby Flood try giving them a 16-6 half-time lead. As they left the field on forty minutes the only question most fans had is how many points would England win by.
The seond half for the Welsh was amazing. James Hook kicked Wales to within seven points of England. Lee Byrne finished off a superb move before Mike Phillips put Wales ahead for the first time after Iain Balshaw's indecisive kick was charged down. Another superb Hook conversion put Wales seven points clear, and England never looked like getting close to the Welsh try-line.
