Canada picked up a famous win to break the undefeated streak that the Red Roses had been maintaining since 2021. Canada were behind at half-time, but scored three tries in the second half to win 24-21, with a winning try coming from Shoshanah Seumanuatafa in the final few minutes.

The Red Roses’ undefeated streak regrettably came to an end against Canada as they lost 24-21, conceding in the final few minutes. The Red Roses took a 14-5 lead into half-time, and despite another try in the second half, they conceded three to lose out.

Red Roses win with fewer than 50 points in the game.
