Autumn Nations Series Week Three Preview

England earned a landmark 33-19 victory over New Zealand at Twickenham on Saturday, breaking a six-year drought against the All Blacks and notching just their ninth win in 47 meetings. 

In front of a home crowd, Steve Borthwick’s side overturned a shaky start—down 12-0 inside 20 minutes—to produce one of their most complete performances of the Borthwick era. 

George Ford orchestrated the comeback with two first-half drop goals and a steady boot, while Sam Underhill, Fraser Dingwall and Tom Roebuck crossed for tries that ignited Twickenham.

The All Blacks, ranked No. 2 in the world, showed their trademark spark early through Leicester Fainga’anuku and Codie Taylor, but England’s defensive pressure and ruck intensity flipped the momentum after halftime. 

From the 43rd minute onward, England dictated the pace and outscored New Zealand 22-7.

For England, this win carries enormous symbolic weight—it halts New Zealand’s dominance, extends England's unbeaten streak to 11 matches and reaffirms the team's standing among rugby’s elite ahead of next year’s global cycle. 

Twickenham roared in celebration as England closed out a statement victory that could redefine their trajectory under Borthwick’s leadership.
