England 47-24 Italy
TWICKENHAM STADIUM — England overcame an early scare to beat Italy and keep their slim hopes of a Six Nations title alive with a 47-24 victory.
It means Steve Borthwick’s side, who have still never lost to Italy, will now need to beat Wales next week on Super Saturday before hoping France slip up against Scotland in Paris.

Tom Willis, Tommy Freeman and Ollie Sleighthome all scored in the first half but Ange Capuozzo and Ross Vintcent for Italy kept the lead to just four points at the break.
However, three more scores in 10 second-half minutes, including Sleighthome’s second of the game, a short-range snipe from Tom Curry and a brilliant finish from substitute Marcus Smith, gave England the bonus point and a comfortable margin of 25 points.
A late Tommaso Menoncello gave Italy their highest-ever points tally against Engand, and the appearance of a drone bearing the Palestinian flag threatened to delay the game, but Ben Earl went over in the corner to crown a dominant English victory in style.
