PA Wire

Jamie George scored two tries as England got their Guinness Six Nations campaign back on track with a bonus-point 33-0 win over Italy in Rome in an exciting weekend of sport.

Wales responded to their comprehensive defeat to Ireland in round one as Dan Biggar kicked 15 points in the 20-17 victory over Scotland, while France and Ireland played out a thriller in Paris as the hosts came out on top with a 30-24 victory.

Kurt Zouma pulled out in the warm-up with illness as West Ham earned a dramatic 2-2 draw at Leicester in the Premier League and a goal from Fabinho gave Liverpool a 1-0 win over Burnley at Turf Moor. Tottenham suffered a 2-0 defeat to Wolves, while Everton coasted to a 3-0 win over Leeds.

Kamila Valieva continued to train as she awaits CAS’s verdict on her right to stay in Beijing following a positive test for a banned heart medication and Glory And Fortune won the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury.
