A dominant England scored seven tries to crush Italy 47-24 at a sun-drenched Twickenham in a chaotic match on Sunday and maintain their outside hopes of winning the Six Nations championship.

Elsewhere, winless Scotland take on Wales who sealed their first U20 Six Nations over Ireland since 2017 with a hard-fought and spirited 20-12 victory at Newport's Rodney Parade. It secured back-to-back victories in the championship and a much-needed boost for Welsh rugby.

England’s Under-20s will be going for a second Grand Slam in five years next week against Wales at Cardiff Arms Park, but only after they were given an enormous scare by Italy at The Rec.
