Tries from Rachel Cullum (two), Kennedi Stevenson (two) and Olivia Newsome helped to give the North Americans a 29-7 lead early in the second half at Cardiff Arms Park.

However, an England side made up predominantly of players who had graduated from last year’s U18s programme hit back with two tries to narrow their deficit to just 10 points.

Cullum then completed her hat-trick to give Canada a 36-19 advantage, but England were awarded a penalty try and then scored converted try in the closing stages to threaten a remarkable comeback.

Standing between the Canadians and a perfect Transatlantic Quad Series is a Wales team that beat USA 38-31 in their only match in the tournament so far.

Before Wales and Canada take to the Cardiff Arms Park pitch, England will play USA with both teams looking for their first win in South Wales.

You can watch both matches live and for free with RugbyPass TV.

Fenton relishing Olympic debut

Team GB gymnast Georgia-Mae Fenton found time in her busy schedule to join Ashleigh Wilmot and Jodie Ounsley in the Stronger Than You Think studio this week.

Fenton became the first woman in history to retain the uneven bars title at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham two years ago, and she has set her sights on Olympic glory in Paris.

The double commonwealth gold medallist is relishing the opportunity to emulate her hero, Beth Tweddle as she prepares to make her Games debut in the coming weeks.

But before she headed to the French capital, Fenton met up with Wilmot and Ounsley to discuss her gymnastics career and much, much more.
