England cling on in bruising Twickenham battle


England 12 Wales 6Jonny May ran in both tries as England kept their Grand Slam aspirations alive by edging Wales 12-6 in a brutally competitive Six Nations clash at Twickenham. Controversy clouded the result, however, after television match official Glenn Newman ruled out a try for Gareth Anscombe when Wales trailed 12-0 in the second quarter. Wales chucked everything at England in the closing stages, Anscombe’s penalty adding to the tension, but the home defence held out. ENGLAND: M Brown, A Watson, J Joseph, O Farrell, J May, G Ford, D Care, M Vunipola, D Hartley, D Cole, J Launchbury, M Itoje, C Lawes, C Robshaw, S Simmonds. WALES: G Anscombe, J Adams, S Williams, H Parkes, S Evans, R Patchell, G Davies, R Evans, K Owens, S Lee, C Hill, A Jones, A Shingler, J Navidi, R Moriarty.
