Video summary
Press to jump
- 0:00Moloney-MacDonald finishes in the corner, then crosses again in the opening minute of highlights.
- 1:05A USA maul reaches the line, but a television review identifies obstruction.
- 2:03Hope Rogers breaks through England's defence to put the USA on the scoreboard.
- 3:38Moloney-MacDonald completes her hat-trick, with her fourth try following at 04:20.
- 4:55Alev Kelter stops England's attack with a heavy tackle.
- 10:12Kate Zackary finishes a late USA forward drive.
Claudia Moloney-MacDonald finds the corner twice before the highlights have reached their first minute. BBC Sport's biggest new upload belongs to England's women, whose return to winning ways against the USA gives the week its most emphatic sporting response.
After successive Test defeats by Canada, the Red Roses ran in nine tries in New Jersey. Moloney-MacDonald supplied four of them in a 55-12 win, with the highlights reaching about 67,000 views. There is resistance worth watching too: Hope Rogers powers through for a USA try, and Alev Kelter delivers a hefty tackle. Viewers discuss England's passing and use of their backs, alongside questions about the sparse crowd.
Women's rugby had room for both the full Japan-Wales match and the rather less formal business of "UNTYING SHOELACES IN RUCK! 👀" among fourteen new uploads.
The freshest momentum, though, belongs to Kimi Antonelli. BBC Sport's hometown feature visits Bologna and the people who knew him before his championship success. It is currently the channel's busiest video, followed by the Chequered Flag Mexico review, where Harry Benjamin, Jennie Gow and Marc Priestley hear from Damon Hill and examine Ferrari's Hamilton-Leclerc controversy.
Across the channel, the week brought roughly 900,000 views and a modest subscriber gain. Daily viewing is below its usual level. Fellow BBC channel BBC Comedy Greats had a larger viewing week, but BBC Sport's distinctive pairing was on the pitch and in the paddock: England's response to defeat, and the community behind Antonelli's title.

What viewers say
Great to see the Red Roses using their excellent backs. Some superb play by the USA as well.
@Tekjoe25See it on YouTubeSome good slick passing and well worked tries. Feels like the team have a good base of key players to build on, Feaunati, Muir, Harrison, Kabeya, Jones, etc and then need to develop more quality for some areas - especially in the backs. Where is Millie David?
