England captain Meg Jones: "Credit to USA, they have come off the back of some amazing wins and have been phenomenal building the game playing in a stadium like this.
"We wanted to control the game and impose ourselves because they had momentum from their wins. When we got into our game, we started keeping the ball, being patient and everyone was a threat at the line. We became unstoppable and that's where the tries came from.
"Off the back of two losses, we just wanted to learn. We have so much feedback from this tour to go and review. There's so much growth in this team, we are hungry to keep getting better."
Maddie Feaunati hits a brilliant line and runs clear.
There is just one change to the USA starting pack that faced Italy in Nashville last week, with Exeter Chiefs prop Hope Rogers promoted from the bench to the starting front row, replacing Lauryn Carlton.
There has also been one change in the backline, as Abigail Paton replaces Taina Tukuafu at scrum-half.
USA: Cowdrey; Mataitoga, Henrich, Vogel, Kelter; Mason, Paton; Rogers, Treder, Sagapolu-Senele, Taufoou, Ehrecke, Humphreys, Perris-Redding (co-capt), Tafuna.
Replacements: Stathopoulos, Carlton, Tupou, Jarrell-Searcy (co-capt), Bailey, Zackary, Bargell, Hann.

Ellie Kildunne remains one of the world's most phenomenal players when it comes to gainline success and metres gained.
Much of this is due to poor opposition defence, but her statistics show a decline over the past three seasons at international level.
It seems almost harsh to highlight as these are numbers other players could only dream of but she's also gone from beating an average of six defenders a game in 2024, to 4.2 in 2026.
Kildunne has also conceded more penalties in 2026 than either of the previous two years.

Emma Sing now appears to have some purchase on the England 15 shirt and it is well deserved. She is a different full-back to Kildunne, which is a bonus for the Red Roses.
Sing has three PWR titles with her club side Gloucester-Hartpury and has been one of their most reliable players throughout that period.
