England came from 12–0 down to beat New Zealand 33–19 at Twickenham in November 2025, their first win over the All Blacks at the ground since 2012.
New Zealand came to Allianz Stadium, Twickenham on Saturday 15 November 2025 for the third of England’s four home Tests in the Quilter Nations Series, with England unbeaten in nine.
The All Blacks are woven into the ground’s origins. Sold-out Tests against New Zealand and South Africa at Crystal Palace showed the Rugby Football Union what a stadium of its own could earn, and in 1907 the union bought the Twickenham site. It opened in October 1909 and is now the union’s headquarters as well as England’s home, the second-largest stadium in Britain.
England had not beaten New Zealand at Twickenham since 2012, and a win would be their tenth in a row.
The visitors struck first. Leicester Fainga’anuku and Codie Taylor scored inside the first half-hour for a 12–0 lead. Ollie Lawrence replied with a try, and George Ford landed two drop goals before the interval to leave England a point behind at 11–12. Sam Underhill’s try two minutes after the break gave England the lead for the first time, and Fraser Dingwall finished a first-phase move from a lineout. Will Jordan’s 45th Test try brought the All Blacks back to 25–19, but Ford kicked a late penalty and Tom Roebuck scored in the corner with three minutes left. England won 33–19 before 81,953, and Ford was named player of the match.
