The teams are preparing for the matches that will define who advances in the competition.\n\nEngland, after a solid start, faced a challenge in their match against Australia, although they finally prevailed with a score of 47-7 in Brighton. Despite the defeat, Australia managed to qualify for the next round thanks to other results.\n\nCanada demonstrated its level with a resounding victory over Scotland, while New Zealand was dominant against Ireland, achieving a score of 40-0.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who Will Stop England?<\/h2>\n\n\nDuring the first 20 minutes of the match, Australia presented a game plan that showed how the &#8220;Red Roses&#8221; could be neutralized. They played with kicks from their own half, looked for the 50:22, disrupted the set piece, and attacked with great intensity when they reached England&#8217;s 22-meter zone.\n\nAustralia scored first, and during the first quarter of the match, England was outplayed. However, England regrouped and achieved victory by 47-7, although it was not as easy as some predicted. Australia pressured the &#8220;Red Roses&#8221; in a way that no other team had managed in this tournament.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a4.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0907%2Fr1542250_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Inglaterra vs. Australia\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<em>England were forced to work hard in the first half against Australia.<\/em>\n\nFor those looking for how to beat England, Australia might have offered a model.
