Rugby

TWICKENHAM, London — Ben Youngs became England most-capped men’s player in their 23-19 Six Nations victory against Wales at Twickenham on Saturday.

Scrum-half Youngs came off the bench in on 60 minutes for his 115th England appearance, breaking Jason Leonard’s 19-year record.

Alex Dombrant scored England’s only try of the game a minute into the second-half, with the home side’s remaining points coming from the boot of fly-half Marcus Smith.

Josh Adams, Nick Tomkins and Kieran Hardy all went over for Wales in the second-half, but their resurgence was too late to challenge the dominant England.
