Canada falls to England in Women's Rugby World Cup final in front of record crowd

Canada lost 33-13 to England in the final of the Women's Rugby World Cup on Saturday in front of a record crowd in London.

Canada sought its first title after also falling to England in the 2014 championship game.

Asia Hogan Rochester scored a pair of tries for Canada. Sophie de Goede added a penalty kick, but missed a pair of two-point conversion attempts.

England took advantage of early Canadian mistakes with three unanswered converted tries to lead 21-8 at halftime.

Canada couldn't overcome the deficit. England's Alex Matthews scored a second try in the match to give the hosts a 31-13 lead in front of 81,885 people at Allianz Stadium in Twickenham — the largest crowd in women's rugby history.

Canada started fast with an Hogan-Rochester try five minutes into the match.

More to come.
