England beat Italy in Women's Rugby World Cup

    Defending champions England made it two wins out of two in Women's Rugby World Cup Pool B as they outclassed Italy.

    Emily Scarratt, Alex Matthews, Lydia Thompson and Amy Cokayne scored to help them to a 22-8 half-time lead despite several missed chances in Dublin.

    They added further tries through Tamara Taylor, Scarratt again, a Danielle Waterman double, Thompson's second and Amy Wilson-Hardy.

    Italy replied through efforts from Maria Magatti and Elisa Giordano.

    England meet the United States, who beat Spain 43-0 on Sunday, in what will be a pool decider on Thursday, 17 August.
