Ellie: Final outcome will be so different this time!

ELLIE Kildunne insists previous World Cup finals are irrelevant as England prepare for their moment of truth against Canada at Allianz Stadium on Saturday.

Kildunne has cleared herself to take part in the showpiece at a sold-out Twickenham after her two exhilarating tries in the 35-17 last-four victory over France came at the cost of a bruised knee and cramp.

It will be England’s seventh consecutive Women’s World Cup final yet they have won just one of those matches, also against Canada in 2014.

Three years ago they were edged 34-31 by New Zealand in heartbreaking circumstances and Kildunne, a starter at Auckland’s Eden Park that day, refuses to look backwards.

“It's a different tournament, we're a different team, and we're up against a different opposition” said the 26-year-old, who was named player of the match against France.
