In a thrilling match at Newcastle, England's U20 rugby team continued their impressive streak in the Six Nations, demolishing Scotland with a final score of 57-13. This victory keeps their dream of a Grand Slam well within reach.

First Half Highlights The game kicked off with Exeter Chiefs wing Campbell Ridl scoring the opening try, showcasing his agility and speed. Scotland quickly retaliated with a try from Fergus Watson, but England regained control with remarkable tries by hooker Kepu Tuipulotu, who scored twice, and additional points from number eight Kane James and prop Tye Raymont.

Second Half Dominance The second half saw England further extend their lead with tries from captain Tom Burrow, George Pearson, Jack Bracken, and Angus Hall. Despite a valiant effort from Scotland's Oliver Duncan, who scored a try for the visitors, it was clear that the match was in England's firm grip.

Player of the Match Kepu Tuipulotu was awarded the player-of-the-match, thanks to his powerful runs and a spectacular grubber kick that set up James' try.

Looking Ahead With victories over Ireland and France already under their belt, the English team is in a strong position to secure a Grand Slam for the first time since 2021. Their next challenge will be against Italy on March 7, while Scotland will face Wales in their upcoming match.
