England Rugby Falls Short, New Zealand All Blacks Claim 24-22 Victory

England Rugby Falls Short, New Zealand All Blacks Claim 24-22 Victory

New Zealand edged England 24-22 in a classic clash between the sides. Tele'a's two tries and a missed drop goal in the final seconds were crucial moments.

England and New Zealand played their first test match against each other since a pair in July, and it lived up to the hype.

The atmosphere at Twickenham was wild, as the New Zealand All Blacks narrowly defeated England 24-22 in the Autumn Nations Series. 

England started strong, with Marcus Smith scoring multiple penalties, but New Zealand responded with tries from Mark Tele'a and Will Jordan and went into halftime with a lead, 14-12.

In the second half, England took control, highlighted by a stunning try orchestrated by Smith, before Immanuel Feyi-Waboso’s took it across the line.

However, New Zealand surged back, with Tele'a scoring the crucial try. England's George Ford had a chance to win with a last-minute drop goal, but the kick went wide.

Wallace Sititi was named Man of the Match for an outstanding performance in just his seventh cap.
