Six Nations LIVE: Wales vs England score and updates from Cardiff

Changes on both sides, and then come the two players we tagged at half-time. Mako Vunipola’s extended warm-up served to set up support for Ellis Genge while Dan Biggar replaced Owen Williams.

Also in for Wales is Nick Tompkins, whose debut Mason Grady has made. Solid enough from the middle who you think should have a lot more options in a Welsh jersey.

Two Welshmen are treated briefly, Owen Williams one of them after a firm landing on Anthony Watson after the two fought in the air.

Again, both groups of players turned their eyes to the Cardiff sky and Wales knocked near the touchline.

Another free-kick against England in the scrum as both front rows struggle to line up. England certainly takes the resulting lift to the skies.

That less! Anthony Watson misinterprets the flight and Jack van Poortvliet has to fall on the loose ball.

Jack van Poortvliet’s box flattens slightly but good work from the chasers means it’s back in English hands. Ollie Chessum is repelled but Christ Tshiunza had knocked out during the air contest.

Here’s Kyle Sinckler’s score – it was given on the pitch, so Mathieu Raynal must have spotted an earth touch, although one isn’t entirely obvious:

Neither side was really at the top in the scrum today, but it was still pretty chaotic throughout. After a reset, Mathieu Raynal pauses between each instruction to provide some stability and England can’t resist driving early.

Wales tap and scout left edge but Leigh Halfpenny is treated and England receive a breakdown penalty.

Wales work stages midway, Mason Grady wins a collision but to little final win. Tomos Williams drops the ball on his right toe and box lifts behind Anthony Watson, who hits a chasing Louis Rees-Zammit with a deft swing towards the touchline.

England threaten tram lines but Ollie Lawrence’s offload drifts forward. Wales scrum at the ten meter line.

England answers! A penalty from the restart and they can attack immediately within the Welsh 22. The visitors rely on their forwards and Kyle Sinckler delivers, smuggling the ball to the ground just before he tumbles over the line with the muscular support of a mate.

Owen Farrell converted – just as Steve Borthwick would have wanted his team to respond to that gentle concession of the try.

Intercepted! They don’t catch Louis Rees-Zammit!

A scare for Max Malins, fatally double recoupling. The wing stops before it gets past the line and waits to pull the trigger until Rees-Zammit is right there to catch it.

He records cleanly, and from there the conclusion is withheld. The change puts Wales in the first lead of the evening.

Owen Farrell resumes proceedings.

Interestingly, Mako Vunipola completes an extended early warm-up for England at half-time, with all of Wales’ substitutes traveling with him on the principality’s surface. Vunipola will soon be backed by his English banking buddies – Steve Borthwick stressed this week how disappointed he was at England’s conceding to Italy in the last quarter, so their involvement could be crucial.

However, Wales have a lot of quality among their substitutes – you think this could be the kind of day for Dan Biggar…
