England won with a score of 30 - 17 against Wales on Saturday, 6th February 2009.
In a match lacking quality but full of endeavour , lock James Haskell crossed in either half and Danny Care registered a try as England ended a three year winless streak against Wales.
The turning point of the match came five minutes before half - time when lock Alun Wyn Jones was sent off which enabled England to open up a seventeen point lead.
It was to be England's day when Armitage intercepted Stephen Jones' loose pass and freed Tate, the Sale centre was able to stretch his legs before deftly flicking the ball onto the onrushing Haskell who crashed over for his second try of the match.
