Worcester Valkyries’ Lydia Thompson scored a brace earlier today as England Women saw off Canada 27-20 to make it two wins from two in the 2017 International Women’s Rugby Series.
Thompson scored two tries for the Red Roses while Abbie Scott and Kay Wilson also went over, with seven points coming from the boot of Emily Scarratt.
Wing Magali Harvey kicked ten points for Canada while Carolyn McEwen and Karen Paquin crossed the whitewash but they could not find a score in the closing stages.
Fellow Worcester Valkyrie Rochelle Clark also played for England, who extended their unbeaten run to eight matches after the 53-10 win over Australia in their opening tour match.
