With Wales on the attack, a Tovey grubber kick bounced off an English player into the path of centre Ben Williams. He galloped 60 metres to send wing Seb Stegmann racing in under the Welsh posts. Miller’s conversion gave England a 10-9 interval lead.
England were buoyant in the second half, their pack dominating possession and flanker Callum Clark was driven over at a line-out. Halfpenny’s brace of penalties drew scores level at 15-15 but Miller punished Welsh mistakes with his own brace of penalties in the last quarter to seal the result for England.
